I have saved $500.00 that has been earmarked for comms. I am wanting to get the most bang for my buck as they say.
Below is a list of items that I already have and want to expeand from:
2- Bendix King VHF portable/handheld radios 136-174 freq range, both of these radios have 3 spare batteries each and have 2 clamshells each also. I use these daily for Fire/EMS calls. They are both owned by me.
1-Motorola Digital radio. This is for when our department goes active with WYOLINK. Once this goes live it will take us from agalog VHF radios to digital
6- Motorola FRS/GRMS radios. You know the kind that is blister packed with the 24 mile range (yeah right)
1-Grundig shortwave radio. Still can't figure this thing out. All I can seem to get is radio stations from Mexico. Any suggestions on frequencies to listen to would be MUCH APPRECIATED.
1-Bendix King mobile radio, again in the 136-174 range mounted in my truck.
Several rechargeable batteries that plug into the wall. Looking at a portable solar panel soon to be able to charge other batteries.
So what would you suggest on getting next to round out my comms? My guess is a HAM of some type.
Thanks in advance for any help.
