Hey guys, Im just getting done packing a 1st 2nd and 3rd line of survival gear bags...
I think I have most bases covered. But, I have a few things I still need to figure out... One of them is a Radio....
I have 2 motorola radios walkie/talkie, (for use with the wife) and a FM wind up/solar radio... But, I was thinking It would be nice to have a Handheld radio for emergencies or even hiking!
I have been trying to do some research and Have come the conclusion that It would be best to get a dual VHF/UHF Handheld...
I dont have a licence, but would be trying for one in the next year. I wont be buying a Radio until later on also. I would only use it for SHTF (broken Leg when hiking, Zombie attack, Lost in woods) assuming Cell service is down.
I Know that you get what you pay for, but, I cant afford $1000, so I have been looking on ebay and have found a few radios that might work, Ill post them below.
Here is what I am looking for in a Radio; Good range, Good Fhz range, CHEAP(>$120ish).
Here is what I found;
Cheap Ebay Radio, UHF/VHF
Another Ebay Radio
what do you think? Also have you heard about Scramble modes? do they work? and can the government or others track where you are Tx'ng from??
