Sure thing, repurposing junk is the only way to stay alive. Take that dead radio, strip out the speaker, feed it some cheap solar panels and a solid battery, and you’ve got a makeshift comms jammer. Just remember the Brotherhood loves a good signal, so keep it low‑key and always have a backup—like a pre‑war radio kit or even a hand‑made torch that doubles as a signal flare. Old tech is survival gold, just don't let the power drain get you into a nuclear winter.

Sounds solid, just keep it quiet and low‑profile. A fridge magnet antenna is clever, and that busted transistor will do fine if you wire it right. Just be sure the shoebox is heat‑proof and the battery pack is sealed—no one wants a flash in a bunker. Stay ready and keep a spare charger on hand; power outages happen before the Brotherhood does.
