Great video. Just an FYI meant to be constructive. There is no "my frequency" in any radio service. All bands are shared. Even if you have an FCC business license for a particular frequency, you must yield the channel to other licensed users. The ambulance guys assuming they have GMRS licenses have every right to use the frequency as anyone else who has a license. There is plenty of unlicensed bandwidth for people to mess around with ie FRS, MURS and the ISM band. I recommend anyone interested in preparedness buy a couple of radios and get them in service monitoring the airwaves in your area.

Tech is incredibly easy to get and you get part of the HF bands. 10 meter SSB with 100watt limit can get you very far. Getting general class and HF gets wild. Even just a few watts on a pocket size radio and some wire, can get you hundreds of miles. (check out K6ARK) This biggest benefit of of amateur radio in really understanding how it all works so you can get the best of your communications equipment.

remember the snow shoes! great video!

also ice fishing on ponds ...

Wow im gonna buy a deer sled at Fleet Farm tommorrow...thank for your great wisdom!!!! Minnesota here

move to Aust

Thanks

I now want one of those kayak thingies.

Just found your channel and subscribed. Reading your about section I see that our attitudes align. Thanks for your efforts. Fellow Jack of a few trades and general procrastinator from Idaho.

Thanks for the video. Wife and I just dusted off our tech license and picked up a pair of Baofeng AR-5RM. Can't beat the price.

Gmrs frequencies are not assigned to anybody.

That antenna on your BFeng needs to go directly into the trash. You need a signal stick or 776 on that sucker.

Sad ham will also complain and turn you in. Legal to us in a emergency situation but yeah in the last 10 years like 2 people got busted but they where pumping out some serious wattages.

I had one for watersport called captain zipsled. It was hollow had a rope harness attached. I brought an enormous amount of wood in from woodshed. Great on the snow. Also moved lots of gear on the grass. I'm disabled.

If the snow ever gets deep enough for me to need that, it's time for me to move 🤣 Seriously though I've been in NY state during deep snow conditions so even a southerner like me might need this info someday- another tool in my mental survival toolkit is always a good thing!.

A "SECRET HACK" ...... What was the secret and what was the hack?

I have a heavy duty slide. I used for dragging deer and fire wood. Out of the woods.

Terrain test over rough ground. Streets and sidewalks, stealthy it won't be. Plastic on asphalt and concrete makes a bit of noise 😂

Thank you. It’s not rocket science but a very good idea. Your level of fitness AND the distance you would need to travel will govern if you should even consider this mission of mercy.

A few errors on my part. Some info outdated. Always due diligence and check for yourself. www.fcc.gov/wireless/bureau-divisions/mobility-division/amateur-radio-service www.fcc.gov/wireless/bureau-divisions/mobility-division/general-mobile-radio-service-gmrs www.fcc.gov/wireless/bureau-divisions/mobility-division/family-radio-service-frs

Good bit of misinformation here all the way through. Check regulations instead of relying on this.

Large organization means target rich environment. We need to do something different other than has been done over the past 50 years even if it’s going to be difficult as you say. Thanks for the videos. I appreciate your angles.

More than a "thumbs up" a subscribe.... Sir, I wish you were my neighbor.

I bet most young people have no idea where that movie quote comes from!! One of my favorite movies!!!

Over time I've acquired 8 HAM radios and 1 CB. I am still trying to figure out the CB but the HAMs are extremely useful for even everyday rural living.

Very informative! Thank you.

Good pitch. Simple to understand. Relevant for the urban denizen.

GMRS is about all we would need. Not smart enough to pass a Ham license test.

Haven’t moved up to Ham yet but do have FRS and GMRS. One thing I didn’t hear you mention, FCC license for GMRS covers all family members. Great info as always!

I bought a couple of those a year or so back and have an extra battery and a battery that plugs into a cigarette lighter.

YES! There is a confusion on who created Millennials and Gen Z softies, and it's not just one generation! Every Gen has a tough and weak side (Millennials got most of the weak by default). Every Gen has the strong and the weak minded. Depending on how generational strong or weak you were raised depends on the next gen outcome. As a Gen X'er and veteran that rode the fine line of both strong and weak, I saw bullies that mentally destroyed other Gen X kids while also peaking in high school and tried to relive their youth through their kids. I've also seen the ones bullied for some reason thinking now is the time to pick a fight with kids. It's hilarious and sad at the same time. We have knowledge from Boomers and even the older Silent and Greatest generation. We are the last of the historians and should keep the knowledge flowing as you would a book on survival skills. Let them interpret it as they want, but at least you have passed down the legacy.

Great videos! Thank you for reliable information,

The cheap 888s are very common in Ukraine, using them for block to block coms they work just fine.

😜👌 Always great advice for inexpensive, & sometimes lifesaving resources 💒⚔️ Thanks Brother ✌️ God Bless us All 🇺🇸🙏✝️

This exactly. There are other inexpensive radios available with more features but this will get the job done. If you get more involved in the Ham hobby and meet other Hams you'll find many are preppers too though most of us don't speak openly about that. You'll want to be part of that community if SHTF.

Once the cartel start retaliating, it'll be just another excuse to increase "home land security" and trample on our rights.

When the remnants of Hurricane Helene hit here and points north of me, nearly no current info was available from broadcasting and most of the usual non-broadcast communication systems failed. Even many Police and Fire departments in the affected areas lost some or all of their comms. There was one notable exception: Ham Radio like the radio shown here was giving accurate real-time info on what the dangers were and where they were occurring. Many rescues were facilitated by Ham radio in this disaster because no other was was possible. It's not hard to get an entry-level license; I've spoken to 9 year olds who got their licenses. In urban situations FRS channels will be crowded which can be good or bad depending on what you need. GMRS will probably be a better choice if you want fewer other people listening in,, and some GMRS radios cover FRS channels too. CB is still a thing though even truckers have gotten away from it and it's as bad as ever but it may fit your needs. The latest unlicensed text-by-radio comms are called "LoRa" or "Meshtastic" which forms a free-to-use network of radios which will have nearly as good a coverage and range as cellphones when it fully matures. It isn't dependent on grid power with most units using USB rechargeable batteries which can be handled by small solar. Each unit resends what it hears 'leapfrogging' messages along, and text messages can be configured to going to a single user or to multiple users. It's relatively cheap, fairly user-friendly, and worth watching with many larger cities already having coverage. I think it's going to become a prepper's favorite once enough people get involved.

We have plenty of the uv-5r good little radios. Stay frosty my friend !

What advice do you have for someone who wants to operate unlicensed? Asking for a friend.

Rubber Duckey 😂😂😂.you definitely a 1970s baby

Always on piont .from your 1970 Philly Brother. Keep em coming. With m this Madness going on with these Plane accidents it's a good idea 💡 to have another means of Commcation

Thank you! Appreciate the information. I need to learn to use mine.

You can also get a a nice variety of Baofeng radios and accessories from Temu. I just got a nice set of two radios for around 30 bucks

We used duck tape the sticky side to "gather or contain" the radioactive dust From surfaces affected by exposure... when i worked briefly at Waterford 3 in Louisiana... a nuke plant. Yes i was inside " the Hot Shop". Oils and metals are readily suitable for radioactive conductivity. Lead is highly susceptible. Apple juice Pectin is a healthy intake also reducing the internal abodes otherwise available to radiation. There is more...remedy a available... Symptoms of exposure include bloody stool and bleeding gums. It rolls like waves as it passes thru. A little bit can really knock the comfort from ones day and that is the least of ones concerns. Thanks for this Post urban sentinal... we are remote rural on purpose here. Perimeter secure.

The problem IS not Latin America being drug traffikers... the problem is Americans being drug addicts. Stop the urge for use, and the traffic stops.

You want to win the drug war? Legalize everything, everything! Darwin will fix the rest.

Interesting take on this topic. Always a pleasure listening to your piont of view. From your 1970 Philly Brother 😂

They are also deep into devil worship so that’s what makes them ruthless.

Thanks for the video sentinal, those are some good thoughts to ponder on. Im in north Alabama and theres lots of drug activity in my small southern town. Many Hispanics as well, which make me wonder how many are tied to cartels or least illegal

The military has to follow rules; cartels don’t. Advantage goes to the cartels.
