Even if it's static on the radio before the Monster shows up where the kids all
park,

you then have to have Static on the radio when the poor lone Cop, driving out
to chase a racoon off someones porch gets attaked .

- So if your picking up signals from the 1940s there has to be some corollary
local behavior to go along with this.
I think in " Signals", it was northern lights...
- And you have to give Poor Doomed " Lone Cop" a real personality & some
thoughts while he's driving out there in the dark, making his last call..

According to our current knowledge of physics and the universe,
this should not be possible. A radio signal is an energy burst;
it cannot just hang around for 50-60 years. Even if it
traveled out into space, hit something, and bounced back,
the signal would be so degraded when it reached your radio
it would be incoherent. And time travel, except in the
neighborhood of black holes, doesn't exist. If I *did* pick up
such a signal, I would assume I was listening to a re-
enactment or historical tape, not an original transmission
that had somehow bypassed the normal rules of existance.
