The airwaves can only be jambed, not shut down. I cannot see the feds actually interfering with all frequencies across the entire 48 states and stopping individuals with batteries/generators and radios from talking.
If our power grid(s) goes down it will only be a matter of hours until the internet starts to fade. If an EMP impacts the power grid, then expect that so many internet routers will be toast.
I keep my ham gear in a shielded cabinet and disconnected from any wires just so I can use it when the event occurs. I believe it’s just a matter of time and with O the time got much closer.

R They won't have to jam the airwaves to effect ham radio operators or any other technological means. You're missing my point. What some people consider free speech the socialists controlling the airwaves will classify as hate speech etc... and consequently shutdown individuals.

Any good “mobile” HAM gear you’d recommend?
