As I mentioned elsewhere one of the big parts of this is a ban on encryption and heavy regulations on spread spectrum. Obviously a sufficiently capable person could implement these trivially but it hampers mass adoption. If nobody has encryption and jam resistance before a revolution, for sure nobody is going to after one starts as the types of portable radios we're talking about are not particularly modifiable.
