or cyber-mischief on global digital networks, it might be indicated to keep AM and AM receivers in active or resurecctionable status. The frequent drop-outs on my rural "not-so-broadband" webradio connection make me mindful of our vulnerability. Were that day to dawn, not only "youngsters" would be knocking on our door. At least some AM transmitters and numerious old-style AM radios might survive for a skeleton public service.
