“There is a theory that they used vacuum tubes to protect against EMP pulses.”
So then,,, my ‘56 Fender Pro Amp will still work if we’re hit by an EMP pulse attack? Cool! If there’s any electricity.
“‘56 Fender Pro Amp”
Yep, you’re good to go. Just don’t have it plugged in when the shock hits or it’s fried with the rest of our modern junk.
Someone needs to build a vacuum-tube Freeper Computer so we won’t miss out on the forum in case of an EMP.
The servers are already vacuum-tube powered if I recall... :)
(Just joking!!!)
