Control of Electromagnetic Radiation. All radios made during the 1950's and early '60's had small civil defense triangles at 640 and 1240 on the dial. The theory was that Russian planes could easily locate major U.S. cities by honing in on radio transmissions. If all broadcasting were stopped except for 2 widely separated stations, Russian pilots would theoretically drop bombs in cornfields.
