- FloatArtifact 2y agoThat doesn't make any sense unless you're trying to say if it was more popular than cell phones, then it wouldn't be a backup.

During communications, there is typically a person who controls the frequency, designating who should talk at any given time and keep things orderly. The same applies for emergency comms.
