Now its just family, people I directly associate with, or goys from TWP

For beginners get a cheep Bawfang

for short wave xmission

they have ham stuff?

I have 2 Yayzews and.

So it all depends on how much you have to spend and what you want to do with it

maybe like $500

if I can go cheaper I will

I’ll get back to you tomorrow DM me been drinking a bit 😉 I’ll check some prices out on the morong

Kevin C#2757 and @Mr. Hughes I think radio Comm is very important for us, our group. Like if there really was a violent revolution, coup or calamity.

jesus all these transceivers are like $4k+

What do you goys think about the 4TH?

Yes radio coms are very important

Also facebook has been on that goop. If anybody hasn't seen by now, the Trad Worker photo filter is catching people post blocks outright

Is it possible to encrypt radio transmissions like that?

Yes

But it isn’t legal

yea even coded messages aren't legal

That's what all law enforcement and public service radios use.

@Jones Malone what do they use?

Have to go bbl

Encrypted I thought

right I weasn't sure if they had special equipment that wasn't; available to the public

I know at least some do

@Jones Malone no 99% aren't encrypted

hell 75% aren't even digital

Thats actually pretty wild

yea I listened to all police comms during Shelbyville

Now that you mention it I remember police scanners are a thing

If we ever get to a SHTF moment, having a way to get messages out that can't be shut down or intercepted would be useful

I was the guy in the car with like 3 antennas lmao

police agencies would sooner use trunking than encryption because it requires expensive equipment vs competent users

because if one guy is on a channel without a key, it knocks everyone else off encryption

@Mr. Hughes So it's illegal to encode in any fashion? Not even something like Caesar Cipher?

That would be like arresting someone for speaking in pig latin over the adio-ray

97.309 (4)(b)

maybe that isn't the one

either way, it isn't enforced

All messages must be in plain language
(without codes or hidden meanings).
They may be in a foreign language,
except for call signs (see
§ 95.119).

§ 95.183 Prohibited communications.(4)

Coded messages or messages with
hidden meanings (‘‘10 codes’’ are permissible);

So we all just need to learn a niche ass language
