Are you ready for some form of alternative communications if the power or regular communications systems fail? Grid down, Cellular Towers down, and without a way to communicate after a storm or event that results in normal communications being down. What systems are available to the general public and what is the realistic range and use of these systems? We take a look at capabilities of various systems and more importantly limitations. Licensing requirements, touching on costs, and which systems work better than others as well as legal issues that surround each system.
In this book we look at FRS, GMRS, MURS, CB, Ham Radio, Zello, VHF Marine, Airband and Shortwave Radio systems for two-way and one-way communications. The book is designed to be a primer to guide you in the best direction for your needs and we look at systems ranging from 0-dollar cost to advanced radio systems.
The information we are providing in this book is intended for general public communications alternatives and does not cover military, government, or public service communications methods.
