I'm planning on a network of ham radios to maintain communications after the SHTF arrives. Several of the family homesteads are 5 miles as the crow flies (25 by water 🌊); with one about 30 miles, so easy reach for 2 meters! Two of the four locations will have sailboats to transfer supplies. We'll run exchanges as needed, and I'll be the central connection.

If I can get the gear fast enough, we'll add packet radio for our own internet (the internet uses the same protocol as packet radio).⚡💗

Keep on prepping, and be blessed!
