Re: what to do when they cut off communication?

[chowan]

I think 27 meg cb radio is a better choice for most people

the reason i say that is I envision it being more important to talk to your

close neighbors than somebody 50 or 500 miles a way.

so a local radio net of common, short range and simple radios that run off

12 volt is a better plan than more expensive more complicated amature radio.

add in a amature operator to the local comunity net and you have the ability to

send messages anywhere.

also the cb radios on occasion are able talk much greater distances its

just not reliable or predictable
