I was struck by the fact that the outages occurred in USA first and then in
our ally Britain next ... may be just coincidence.

All

Below are Links to a bunch of tiny cheap radios; good for emergencies..
Good for your office desk or your Bunker or whatever...

All which pick up AM/ FM and some receive Shortwave

Shortwave is useful because when the power fails
- and everything is dark / off / not working.

you can pick up BBC from Antigua
( 5975) or Radio Canada from New Brunswick
( 13655 ) among others

Not recommending any except where noted.
