Why cant we hear galaxy news radio in fallout 4?

[Kieldoozer]

im pretty sure the radio dish we pulled off a lunar lander and put on the washington monument would do it, just my 2 cents

its possible

That's shortwave, which "bounces" a signal off the ionosphere so it can be heard on the other side of the planet. Mediumwave (the AM dial in your car) doesn't do that.

with some modification it very well will

Mediumwave signals pass through the ionosphere into space. They don't get refracted or scattered.

And if GNN's broadcasting frequency is in the mediumwave band, it can be heard in the Commonwealth during the evening hours. If it's in the 31 meter waveband shortwave, it could be heard during the day.

In real life you can hear stations from all over the country at night. I listen to WABC New York here in Michigan.

Also see "The Big 8" (CKLW), a station from WIndsor Ontario that could be heard as far away as Washington DC on a clear night. It had pretty good range into the US. "American Experience" had an episode about it years ago, in fact.
