This doesn't have anything to do with contesting, but I'd like the thoughts
of club members. What would you choose for an "emergency radio?" I don't
have a specific scenario in mind -- but my XYL asked if I had a radio that
could be used to provide assistance in an emergency, particularly
terrorist, situation. I have an HT that needs a new battery, but I'm
wondering if I should have more? Is a FT-817 overkill or is 2M enough? (I
have a HF radio in my car.)
Thoughts?
Thanks/73,
