Just FYI -
If your kits include a television or a radio that can receive television audio, remember that this coming February, they will no longer be able to receive over-the-air signals.

Portable options are few and far between for ATSC devices, and in my tests, the ATSC signal is far more fragile than the old analog signal it is replacing.

In a second line of thinking, I've been using the Verizon National BroadbandConnect service and am very, very happy with it. It's a wireless card that gets you on the internet at about the same speed as a DSL line, with no cables needed. Of course, the cell network will need to be present for it to work, and I've not tested it in an emergency situation when the cell sites are saturates, but as a way of getting online when the power is out and the wires are down it works.

Finally, in terms of telecommunications, it's a good idea to have a calling card in your wallet for those times the cell network is down. AT&T cards have no expiration and really low fees.
