[K3PZN-List] EMP preparedness

[Kyle Thornton]

Hi all,
I've been thinking lately and want some of your opinions. God forbid we have an EMP (Electromagnetic pulse) all of our radios and power supplies and possibly antennas would be worth nothing but the copper value. So I know someone of you including myself have been slowly working toward emergency preparedness and I've been thinking. If something like that where to happen all of our radios would be toast. 

So what would be a good way if there is a away to protect our equipment from something like that so if one happens we can provide communications to fire dept. Police dept, hospitals etc for the public because no one else will be able to communicate. If it can be done to protect against EMP we should consider adding protection to the go kits around the county again so if something happens we can still operate. 
Just some thinking I was doing for a while and decided to ask the question
