This probably wouldn’t be something that you as a person is running the HW for, so you have no direct expense to HW or maintenance. This would likely be government driven and paid through taxes. Its basically just NPR, but with low bandwidth internet instead.
Who's going to pay for my extra electricity costs to run my antenna and amplifier that supports this radio network?

For readers in the future, NPR was a show from back when we had public radio…

No…NPR is National Public Radio, its the broadcasting organization, not a show.

Unless you are running a mesh node or joining the global supercompute cluster, you wouldnt need to run any hardware. I more mean like a network of towers run by the state using sub 1000 MGHz freqiencies or soemthing, to get good range, maybe even lower frequencies. You could get like 50+ mile range with small devices at low power if you had the right spectrum.
