I did a little work on my HF station this weekend. What, do you ask, has this to do with COVID-19?
Do you see where this is going?
A good HF station will give you the same talk range (or better) as a VHF handheld going through a repeater, sans the vulnerable infrastructure.
This is not something you’re going to do now that we are past the 11th hour. None of the senior citizens who run the ham tests want to go out in public and risk getting something that’ll kill them. If you need some comms now, I previously posted information on what to do. However, once this mess is over, you now know what you need to work on.

Currently working on my CW via NVIS, a process but worthwhile I believe.
And what will all the local first responder’s do, when they realize that their Comm Tech is in our “at risk” category…hmm?
Thanks Ticom!
