Why doesn't my radio work?
I have my radio set for the vault to raise moral but it doesn't seem to be working. I switched it from wasteland to vault but it isn't making a difference Am I missing something or is this a bug?

It doesn't matter if you have it set to broadcast to wasteland or just in the vault. It is a small bump in happiness just having that first person in the Radio room....I think only one or two points. When you have it set to 'Wasteland' it's still broadcasting in vault so dwellers get to listen to radio. When just set to 'Vault' it just means your not transmitting out to the wasteland to call for new dwellers to come join your vault.

As TheNewGuy stated, those points of happiness drop temporarily when under attack....cuz radio is replaced by alarm and everyone's slightly scared. It goes back up again after attack is over. You can also get some additional happiness points by having more people in the radio room. So, the larger you make the room, the more you can assign to it and the more happiness points you get. Upgrading it will make the time it takes to 'call a wasteland survivor' to your vault shorter. This is just a 'chance' percentage of it actually being successful however.
