Changed the Subject line...hope no one minds.
Funny that should come up. We had a visitor to our site that asked the same
question of all of our radio gear...
And yes if there were an EMP event you could throw all your transceivers in
the trash as well as the generators with solid state regulators and engine
controls, your solar power system regulators, all your computers and network
gear and the car you arrived in.
Only answer I had for him was I would get back to the house and pull out my
R390A/SP-600 and my Johnson Ranger (not to mention my AR-15 and a side arm)
and start stringing a bunch of batteries together in hopes of getting a
signal out to some far flung place that had not been effected.
I don't think anyone drills for a doomsday event. Probably should though...
Would be a sad end to my Ten-Tec gear though...
