Hello All,
My name is Fabio, and I live in the suburbs of Brasilia, the capital city of Brazil. I work for the Environment ministry here, and routinely travel to remote destinations all over the country, from the amazon basin to the south plains. I've been reading this forum for at least 3 years, and I would like to thank all of you for the invaluable information here. It opened to me a new word to me about survival and emergency preparedness.

I would like to ask your opinion about a Emergency radio I just found in the internet: the Midland XT511. What do you think about the idea of a FRS/GMRS and emergency radio in the same package?

Thanks, and I´m avaliable to answer any eventual questions about my country.

Fabio
