For you ham radio fans, here is an interesting little thing I found... Seems some guy is building a radio kit into a 50 cal ammo can... I know virtually nothing about ham, other than when my dad had his old Kenwood split unit in the 1970s.. His running postcard battle with Radio Moscow in English at the time.. And caught him way too high in a pine tree for his own good, putting up a 120' or more bare copper wire antenna.. Hope this is useful info... www.qsradio.com/shop-now.html#!/New-Item-Hammo-Can-XL%E2%84%A2-Complete-Go-Box/p/58978487/category=13274007

I also have a am radio transmitter, about 20 watts, ready for WTSHTF and people need info locally. It has a range of around 30 km.Not licensed as such, but as it covers most hf ham bands, its legal on them. All homemade and valve powered, emp proof as well. Im looking to the time when intel has to be disseminated and I can do that. I think licensing will be a moot point as the Govt jerks will be hiding in their bunkers.
And why do they call them all "apartments" when they are all stuck together ?

Doesn't matter, community is the thing here. Intel can be given out and spread by word of mouth.
The only people I fear are the ones with no doubts.
