I am not sure that going radio silent at local distances would be a good thing unless the "new technology" that replaces radio has major advantages. It would be advantageous to eliminate the wires and fibers that are now strung all over the place but the speed of local communications does not appear to be a problem looking for a solution. A network of small, inexpensive RF type transceivers conveniently located to cover the regions of interest could offer fast reliable communications for the future. The low power required for short range operation would effectively make us appear as radio silent to outsiders. Who knows, LENR power sources for these devices might very well allow them to operate indefinitely.
The thought of antigravity devices coming soon is tantalizing. Do you suspect that we are just one discovery short of achieving that goal? Or maybe it has already been observed within a laboratory somewhere but not confirmed, similar to our favorite subject LENR. I wonder if anyone has made observations that suggest strange anomalies in gravitational measurements that have remained unexplained thus far? It is the unexplainable occurrences that hide the important discoveries and things we totally understand are at the level of our current technology.

Many of the highest power shortwave stations such as Deutsche Wella have gone off of the air. They have been replaced with very lower power cellphone like gigahertz transmitters from local and satellite transmitters. In PA I pick up only one local television station now as compared with 4 regional stations with the old VHF system, UHF does not defract downward as VHF does. Television may someday go to low power and cable only with the effectiveness of high power UHF digital air wave transmission being limited. Radar my go as all planes are equipped with transponders. It was proposed by someone, I forget who, that we make a circle of fire on the earth to signal Mars. Tessla tried to signal Mars with his coil, what a waist, we now know Mars is dead. Antigravity is coming someday, as all of the magnetic fields, including the gravitomagnetic, are not a conserved property of the universe. There is nothing fundamental stopping us just the know how. Maybe that will get us out there. Someone should do a story of this all with the 100 anniversary of the beeping transmitter and send it to IE. Frank Radio transmissions might be an ancient form of communications to an advanced civilization. It could be like us talking to each other with smoke signals.
