This freq is MURS, and does not require a HAM licence. This is NOT a preparedness meeting, but a preparedness Ham Radio Net that meets weekly on Tuesday nights at the below frequency. Nonhosted unless someone steps up. Prepper Net Every Tuesday night at 6:30PM PST on 151.8200 MHz Some folks have come together and chosen a frequency or channel that all preppers can use. They assume that you probably have a Baofeng or Wouxun type radio, or other radio capable of transmitting in the MURS band. We picked this frequency because you do not need a license. You do not need to be a ham radio operator. What do I do? Just program 151.820 into your radio and label it as PREP. From another team: "It is our intention to have as many members of our community as possible to use this frequency." Every Tuesday night at 6:30pm PST just monitor that channel. At some point, after we get enough people, you may begin to actually have contacts on that channel. Maybe getting to a higher place in your op area will help you hear what's going on. Why do I care? Perhaps you are going to travel and you may find preppers on that channel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-Use_Radio_Service _________________ "The beauty of the Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it."

At least on the low power setting for murs, you would be the one person I can reach. _________________ "The beauty of the Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it."

This sounds interesting, and I have a license KG6ITC. Have never heard of MURS.
Will login next time if I can figure it out. For the 2 Meter band that many hand held ham radio operators use... would be Bad-Ass to have a WAGuns repeater. Craig |

I have a BF F8+, and just got the newer HP (high power) version. Still need to take the HAM test.
