Bitcoin transactions work via satellite, ham radio, or cellphone. If there is any form of working communication you can send or receive Bitcoin.

If comms are temporarily disabled, your Bitcoin is still safe on tens of thousands of nodes.

Would you mind sharing any examples of somebody accepting transactions on behalf of the Bitcoin network over HAM radio?

Obviously it's possible, if you can make a TCP connection over carrier pigeon, you can make it over anything. I'm curious to see a working example however.
