Does any of this sound familiar to you?
Do you think that in an emergency that you will be able to drive right up to the convenience store and buy what you need, or that the road will even be open.
How many of you thinks that a handheld radio is all the more that you need in an emergency?
How many of you do not own a modern transceiver?

Well Living as I do in a motor home I usually try to have a least 50 gallons of gas where the generator can access it (70 tank) and everything is "Portable" with two long wire antennas I can toss (literally) up fairly fast, a vertical (HF) and multiple VHF/UHF rigs and antennas.
And having worked for the Government.... I trust 'em far as I can throw 'em (Though I am fairly strong, "The government" weighs several thousand tons (Being the biggest employer in most states all those bodies add up weight wise) so the odds are I can not throw them far.)
