it's a combo radio+flashlight that has a usb port

2018-02-07 13:53:57 UTC  

is it a listen-only radio or can you broadcast?

2018-02-07 13:54:01 UTC  

listen only

2018-02-07 13:54:08 UTC  

I imagine people are starting to want to build these kits if they haven't

2018-02-07 13:54:10 UTC  

maybe something to broadcast if you end up stuck in a building

2018-02-07 13:54:14 UTC  

i've seen all these graphics being passed around on line

2018-02-07 13:54:21 UTC  

about what to pack in a kit

2018-02-07 13:54:45 UTC  

yeah, order one of those baofeng radios

2018-02-07 13:54:48 UTC  

Can you upload such a graphic?

2018-02-07 13:55:08 UTC  

I was more thinking of a walkie talkie or something you can modify to broadcast on police frequencies

2018-02-07 13:55:17 UTC  

worst case they save you and arrest you because you illegally used their frequencies

2018-02-07 13:55:22 UTC  

lol

2018-02-07 13:55:24 UTC  

That's what the baofengs are

2018-02-07 13:55:40 UTC  

They're slightly not so pocketable radios

2018-02-07 13:55:49 UTC  

if everyone had that idea then the emergency frequencies would be unusable

2018-02-07 13:56:08 UTC  

what's the police frequency in Taiwan?

2018-02-07 13:56:13 UTC  

dunno

2018-02-07 13:56:23 UTC  

i'd rather just rely on my phone and have a charger

2018-02-07 13:56:43 UTC  

GSM is a little too fragile in case of emergency imho

2018-02-07 13:56:59 UTC  

huh?

2018-02-07 13:57:06 UTC  

Although you might have a GSM connection nearby, if you don't get a full pass-through to your provider's endpoint, it's unusable

2018-02-07 13:57:20 UTC  

as long as it's set up correctly you should be picking up at least one long range frequency from a backup tower

2018-02-07 13:57:22 UTC  

i don't have line on my PC or discord on my phone so

2018-02-07 13:57:23 UTC  

on the other hand, everyone can listen to radio as long as they are nearby

2018-02-07 13:57:24 UTC  

just search 地震包

2018-02-07 13:57:50 UTC  

地震 = earthquake?

2018-02-07 13:57:56 UTC  

I remember a while ago even in country Australia something took out a a large tower near me

2018-02-07 13:57:59 UTC  

yeah

2018-02-07 13:58:02 UTC  

earthquake bag

2018-02-07 13:58:11 UTC  

literelly earth shock, nice

2018-02-07 13:58:15 UTC  

I still got backup frequencies from nearby towers

2018-02-07 13:58:15 UTC  

learned a new word

2018-02-07 13:58:23 UTC  

Even if it was Edge

2018-02-07 13:58:28 UTC  

Pain

2018-02-07 13:58:34 UTC  

But still enough to call ems

2018-02-07 13:58:59 UTC  

some of those graphics sugget to put money into the bag

2018-02-07 13:59:03 UTC  

that's odd

2018-02-07 13:59:19 UTC  

i think you're referring to this one, which i saw on LINE https://pic.pimg.tw/hcm5499/4b90516d3c337.jpg

2018-02-07 13:59:28 UTC  

it just says "important valuables"

2018-02-07 13:59:42 UTC  

like your bank book and ID
