During the cold war, did anything play on this channel? Did anyone ever tune in to this channel, if you did, did you hear anything?
This question was perplexing me but I wasn't around during the time.

Quoted:
During the cold war, did anything play on this channel? Yes. There were numerous AM radio stations which normally broadcasted on the designated 640 and 1240 KHz CONELRAD frequencies. On any given day, you would hear normal programming on those frequencies. The situation only changed when a CONELRAD alert was issued. Wikipedia entry on CONELRAD |
