nice--as someone who just fools around with a old Hallicrafters "boat anchor" it's fun to see what someone who really knows what they are doing can come up with..questions is,in a real,major disaster do you think any frequency's would be open.i assume there are a lot of people with ham sets and no license who would just jump in and jam the frequency's up knowing that the chance of being caught would be very small,and i'm talking nation wide,grab the BOB stuff and not a local storm or major earthquake.
