Between now and the real thought times there is still some time. Time to prepare.
We know that the humanity will be at the precipice.
We suspect what that means. Maybe not humanity as a whole but each of us, one by one.
We can hear what's happening in Australia. It may come to the UK, France, US and other countries.
The moment someone starts knocking our door is too late to start thinking how to protect ourselves.
Having a reliable information from the neighbors, a warning that the evil orwellian jab commandos are walking around, might be useful.
My solution for it is: CB radio.
There is still some time to learn how to use it, findout which channels are best in our area. Get to know some people over the air.
At some point it might be helpful.
We all hope that the things won't go that far.
But: Would you believe that cops would be protecting the criminals and work for them? Would you believe that doctors would be killing their patients? What else we can expect?
Q said we will be at the precipice because that's when we will all find a will to change. It's not about us here. We know way more than the others. It's about everyone else. THEY have to change and they're not going to. Silent majoriy. Only once they will start seeing the precipice - things will start changing (mass arrests will be widely accepted, including journalists, politicians, etc.). No one will take care about MSM screaming.
At that point having CB and friends in the air that we can contact (even if they switch off our SIM cards) might be useful.
It's a good idea to be prepared. CB radios are good for what they are. They transmit on the 11 meter band and are subject to ionospheric variations sometimes permitting long distance communications, most times not. They are limited in power input to 5 watts. (a night light dissipates 15 watts) Very dependent on the sunspot cycle. If you are looking for dependable communications of more than a few blocks you will need more in terms of power, antennas and equipment. GMRS radios are something to consider if you are a little technically inclined and wish to play around and experiment BEFORE the SHTF. There was a good post on GW awhile back that gives the basics. Check it out if you are serious about setting up a network of friends, family or cohorts with reliable emergency communications.

Limited to 5 watts if you don't hook it up to a linear amplifier. If things go south, I have no problem doing what I have to do.
