sites going down fast. we need something to pass stuff along.
seriously peeps.

I mean it may not be anything but servers.

But what if its not?

What the hell we going to do for our news?

The net being down?

Cant rely on tv or newspapers.

Phone tree is the only thing I can think of.

I agree now it may not be best idea thanks to replies.

However the radio thing may not be option for those of us who cant afford the longer range ones.

Had not thought on phone going out. radio waves would still be option if batteries last etc.

lol. you guys rock.

Thanks.

Re: sites going down fast. we need something to pass stuff along.
I was thinking about this... in the event of a wide system / infrastructure outage -- what can we do?

No phones
No Cell
No internet
No tv?

I was thinking of maybe a token ring / relay done with CB radios or HAM radios?

The infrstructure with HAM is already there. How do we make it work with CB? CB is only good for something like 30 miles, right?

Too bad walkie talkies have such short range.

5*s OP for reading my mind :-)

I don't know what that is will have to research. Much thanks. The ham I think is out for me though. will find peeps who have one in area though and get to know them. that is awesome idea.

Much thanks.

ok looked it up. plain old telephone line. lol. sorry did not know.

the modem I think would be hard but not impossible.

I am sure can find one at the computer store down the road. he has old school stuff for sure.

Re: sites going down fast. we need something to pass stuff along.
Ham Radio (specifically HF) is the ONLY sure way of communicating off-the-grid.

Really suprised there are not more "Hams" here on GLP...

It isn't just voice, data can be sent too, with a station fully operational on the ISS (International Space Station) if the SHTF Hams will still be able to communicate, regardless of the situation.

Suspots and CME's are the Ham's best friend, make comms on HF superb.

HAM RADIO = NO DOOM.

Ham Radio modem is called a TNC (Terminal Node Controller)

They are dirt cheap on ebay and can send data at 9K6, 9600bps.

There is a HUGE amount of dedicated software available, you can even send hi-rez pictures and as a file video over data.

The same is for CB, just illegal to do so in the UK.
