Meet your preparedness minded neighbor here

[mosinguy1]

Preparedness doesn't necessarily equal bugging out. Bugging out is your last choice. Bugging in should be the first course of action :thumb:

I continuously work on my bug out kit, and plan, as I live in an apartment complex... might not be the best place to be when crap goes down... but it's worth trying to make the best of things staying put first. Should I need to, I am sure I can get out of the area if I had to.

well you can head down this way if it hits the fan and ya cant make it to your folks sorry i couldnt make it to shoot last time

I'm in Tacoma, looking for some like minded folks. Would like to get together a half dozen "survivors" to be ready to pool resources and ideas together.

Checkout meetup.com for prepper groups in Seattle. I joined one for the north end and it's great. Too bad you aren't close as it's a good group of people. Good luck!

I'm not sure this post is in the right area, and without context it might sound confusing to some. So I'll paraphrase and you can correct me if I'm wrong.

He's saying to pick up some 2 Meter HAM shortwave radios presumably for emergency communications. 1 for your vehicle and 1 to carry in your backpack.

It requires that you take a Technian Class exam with the FCC as only licensed operators may legally transmit on the 2 Meter frequency (but not to listen).

There is no longer a requirement to learn morse code to pass the technician exam so it's not too tough to get your license.

 

[Brutus57]

Any Skagit, No. Sno, S whatcom like minded folks... ? I ' like a local option in case I can't make it through 100 miles of zombie no man's land to my relatives place. Or even just talk, burn powder occasionally and compare notes.

Finally! A fellow member to help school me on a HAM operators license/info.
Its something Ive wanted to get into lately but wasn't sure where to start or what the best cheapest equipment is.

 

[Brutus57]

Can you buy the equipment sans license? Do you think you would need one if SHTF? License that is? Also consider SIGINT and the massive capabilities OPFOR might have... Just some food for thought.
