Forum:NCR Emergency Radio help

i've been idolized and accepted and liked by the ncr for a while now and i still haven't gotten the radio. i there a specific area you were running through when you got it?


 * I was traveling on the road from Novac to New Vegas when a Ranger approached me from out of nowhere and gave it to me. Oddly I wasn't idolized by the NCR at that time so I don't know what may have triggered it other than doing a couple unmarked quests at Sloan.

>>> Im not 100% sure on this but the only time I had ever recieved it was after i had killed the Deathclaws in the quarry junction and talked to the main man in sloan for a little reward so maybe you just have to kill the alpha male and den mother first but im not sure so good luck


 * On one playthrough, after completing That Lucky Old Sun by activating ARCHIMEDES II and killing all the NCR around the station, I was approached by the NCR hit squad and told I had three days to improve my rep with the NCR or face their wrath. On the very next playthrough, I completed That Lucky Old Sun by sending the power exactly where the NCR wanted it - and I didn't kill them this time. I was approached in the same place as the hit squad by a NCR Ranger this time, giving me the radio. I used it once to find supplies, and afterward whenever I tried to use it I was "out of NCR Operational area" or whatever. While I can understand that on The Strip, I also tried it on Hoover Dam with that effect. -- 19:45, November 4, 2010 (UTC)
