now, with a possble nuclear war scenario...
won`t a ham radio "go down" like everything else due to EMP?
shielding a device is not that easy...it was a long time ago , but i remember reading, that lots of copper (a net/foil) is needed to shield an electronic device it shall also not touch the device to be shielded and in addition to that, the shield must be very well grounded...
i`m wondering if the soviets have old EMP hardened radios for sale..

plus a good car for the day after EMP would be a old soviet built car ...or the east german (DDR) "trabant" (guess Bono of U2 owns one of those old commie cars)


ps: (DDR formerly also known as "east germany" would have had its national holiday on october 7 - the founding day of the DDR)
