While the likelyhood of a Mercury Lander mission is very low, I was wondering if any planning/studies have been done on such a project?

I honestly don't know why they had it in mind, but Stanton Peale's scheme would definitely have involved an active radio beacon. (This is more easily understandable for the Mars Netlanders, since laser reflectors on Mars would quickly get dust-coated.)
