Will there be TV broadcast signals during a power cut? Some of the stations

pages, and letters to friends.


I'm not sure what alternative power options the stations have, but this
last outage was pretty widespread and they were transmitting by the time
I got the generator rigged. Seriously, it would be no great loss.
Their advice was of no use to me and their assurances and predictions
struck me as geared more towards preventing panic than telling me when
I'd have juice again. And my pessimism served me well last month.
