[Survivalcookie]

Could not make it tonight. darn it, just too busy. Someone PM me and tell me what I missed

you were missed. Had some friends from speedways there, that on on Ingo.

Sorry I couldn't make it either. Wife was sick. Hope it was a good turnout.

Mostly just food and water discussion...we are going to start at 7 pm next time....when our group gets bigger we will do the food thing again. I also showed everyone my 72 hour bucket for tornadoes. We are going to do a youtube video on it will post it in here.

That would be great.

Hey, survival cookie, I think communications might be a good topic of discussion at the next meeting, I think it might pertain well with the events being discussed in the media currently.

P.S. when is the next meeting

You are more than welcomed...our next meeting will be January 19, 2013 at 7 pm at Pawability on west Washington in strip mall next to Andy Mohr Chevy. Not sure about Topic...I lost the paper who had the guys email on it that was going to present....I will have to ask one of you to contact him...I think his name was Brian or something like that. I will have to get back to you on topic.

Do you remember who was at our first meeting that seemed to have this covered, it will be one of our topic with in the next 3 months.

I don't remember lol, was it eldirector maybe?

Dose anyone who attends our meeting have any expertise in communications like walkies.

Yeah, I have a bit. CBs mostly, and know a bit about FRS and GMRS. I don't really know much about Ham, though.

My wife and I planned on attending anyway, so I'm happy to put together something for the group.

Does Pawability have a projector for a computer?

 

[MuayThaiGuy]

I am supposed to prepare a primer for reloading. I believe that is for this month's meeting but I don't think it will take up the whole time, I was planning on it being very basic.

I know a little bit (remember) about the ham side of communications. Kinda let my license expire about 10 years ago and really kicking myself in the butt now for doing that. My Kenwood 520 was taken out by lightening one night and not having a transceiver to use, I kinda lost interest in it.

Anyways, the only thing I could recommend on the ham side is using a 2m or 70cm radio in simplex mode for group communication. It requires a Technician class radio license.

If you want to talk across the US (I mean ACROSS, not a state or two over) or maybe even around the world, jump on the 10 meter band. You'd be amazed how far you can talk on skip during the dawn/dusk hours only using 100 watts.

FYI - The FCC does publish your full name and address with your call sign

Maybe you and I can team up a bit for a presentation/discussion? I can cover CB, FRS, and GMRS and you can you can cover the very basics (licenses, pros/cons, and the different bands) for Ham?

Sound like a plan but as of now I am scheduled 1200 - 2000 that weekend.

I'll do some research and see what all has changed since I've had my license.

From a couple PM's I've been exchanging, March might get bumped back to the 23.
