One thing that is mentioned repeatedly in the modules is the breakdown of communications that would occur in T2K after the war went nuclear. One thing that has been overlooked is the fact that the telegraph network in the US and elsewhere would have still been in existence and could be used, at least domestically, to maintain communications between various areas.

There would be breakages in the network of course - the biggest issue would be the lack of trained operators. However there were a lot of people who still knew Morse alive in the 1995-2001 time period. Heck I learned it when I was a Boy Scout. I could see how it could be used in the game to try to relay orders, report scouting, even where a GM has the players sent out to repair a break in the lines.

Not sure if any discussion of if the telegraph system is being used was ever brought up here. I do know that there were still telegraphs being sent in the real timeline up until the mid 2000's
