[TenTec] EMP Product Obsolescence

[Bwana Bob]

Yes, the products my company builds usually have "transorbs" on the 
power inputs to take out EMP and line spikes. We also recommend shielded 
cables for power and signal.

My Paragon has what looks like a gas gap arrester at the antenna 
connector.  I never saw this on any other amateur radio.

For the doomsday scenario I have my Heath HW-100, good as long as 
there's gas for the generator!
