In case phones are down and stuff during a disaster, what would be the best way to communicate? Ham radio? Satellite phone? I need options guys.
The satellite one I have is a one time fee, you push a button then search and rescue come to your GPS coordinates. It’s mainly if I get stranded and it’s life and death situation.
Sadly now a days almost everything is internet based, and can be shut off remotely by governments or hackers. Wish there were more options for communication.
As for long distance, I think you would need an expensive ham radio and a huge antenna.
I thought it was a subscription. I think the garmin ones you need to pay a fee to be able to use. Which I find kinda dumb
