Unless I miss my guess , If your equipment is all solid state, you'd be
"dead in the water" unless , and even then , your equipment was 100%
"mil-spec" parts.!! Even today, I don't think our Govt. has the ability , or
anyone else either, to produce 100% EMP proof devices.
It seems that the "old way" , with "vacuum tubes" (remember those ?) is
the only way around the problem !!!
Just another oldtimer's thoughts.!!!
