I've got one of those on the storage shelf just in case. Modern
technology is a wonderful thing but it is prudent to keep a back up
system that does not rely on it.
Where will you get the electricity to run
the tubes? And will anyone else be on the
radio, then?
I've heard that EMP is fairly localized,
operators some number of miles away might
still be okay. Unless the EMP involves more
tha one bomb?
