99% of the time VHF and UHF are ghost towns, even with the repeaters...
Only time the HF bands are busy is during contests.
I didn't know they still made simple transistor radios.
This is actually good information.
So you can listen to what they say, and do the opposite or go in another direction.
Also, a radio with weather (WX) information would be good, if no internet or TV. Its automated with speech robot.
You had damn well better know what to do.
