Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
I ordered the Kenwood TH-D74A but it has been discontinued, from Ham Radio Outlet. They called me and said that they are supposed to get a batch in and that I should get one. I outta give them a call for an update. That radio gets rave reviews and has a lot of capabilities.

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
I remember the radio, that should be a great one. Did you order anything antenna related?

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
I would recommend the charging stand if there is one as well as a hand mic. The stand is convenient and if you have the radio in the stand hooked to an attic antenna then the hand mic will be helpful.
Are you still thinking of building an antenna?

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
You could always get a magmount antenna and stick it on a cookie sheet in the attic. They usually have about 15’ of feedline on them.
Then you just need a jumper from the antenna feed line to the radio (with correct connectors).

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
Got my cable ran from the attic to the basement last night, and the mast arrived today. Antenna is due on Wednesday, then I'll be ready to go.

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
I'm very interested to find out, my biggest concern is that my house is in a bit of a valley. One positive may be that I live right along the turnpike corridor, not sure if that'll help or not. I figure if I can hit the repeater in Wexford with my handheld, must not be all bad.
