Radio 101: Operating Two-Way Radios Every Day and in Emergencies | Government Book Talk
From the Government Printing Office:
Two-way radio communication may seem like a thing of the past with smart phones and the availability of more advanced technology. However, with the recent frequency of natural disasters, storms, and other emergency situations, more attention is being paid to radios as a reliable form of communication and a possible back-up communication option, including amateur radio operators. |
