Did you go and get the radio license? I only ask because I know we live in the same area, based on previous conversations on TD, so I was curious about local recommendations.
I asked my buddy who teaches prepping your question. His response:
"Only to transmit on a ham/baofeng radio. It’s ok to listen. However, in an emergency, I don’t think you’ll be getting a fine if you need medical or police and use the radio. "
My inner tribe of 15-20 people all have Baofeng radios, so I guess I'll look into that a bit.
I just grabbed a Baofeng myself. I’m probably going to take the class and get licensed for shits and giggles. Does your buddy do classes in the SD area?
Yes he does. There's a prepping group that he drags me to occasionally when there's an interesting topic, but I've had him partner with me doing classes when our Constitution guy is out of town.
I do money theory and true history stuff and describe why the world is going to end. He then tells everyone how to prepare for it.
I'm almost surprised they haven't shut down the internet already.
I've got my 2 radios.
