Hi All:=20

I'm kind of thinking of something crazy! LOL=20
Let's say that an extreme EMP went off in our atmosphere and essentially =
knocked us back to the dark ages with regards to no power, =
communications and the like.=20
Supposing allot of portable generators survived and I think this likely, =
how difficult would it be to jack an HF transceiver into an A.M. =
transmitter, fire up the generator and begin broadcasting news and such.=20=

I'm thinking all you'd have to do is run a Coax cable to the antenna =
system, don't think commercial broadcast stations use 1$ per foot coax, =
probably use some sort of hardline, so perhaps it might be just a simple =
as swapping a connecter.=20
Just thinking about all this solar activity and what if this so called =
2012 event is in fact going to be the mother of all Sun Storms and as a =
result, we'll be back to the dark ages! LOL =20
Oh, who makes these big transmitters? I'd like to look up a model and =
look at the power outputs and specs! LOL No I'm not going to buy one but =
I am thinking of going to the bank with a business plan to start up my =
own FM broadcast station, maybe hide SSB capability in there ! LOL or =
CW! HIHI=20
73 and yes I'm nuts! LOL=20
