You could use this same design to make a ham radio repeater because there are ham radio repeaters with the same form factor as the GMRS repeater used in this configuration.\n\nFolks will debate which is better for an emergency, a ham or GMRS rig. In reality, they are the same tool, they just operate on a different portion of the spectrum. \n\n⚡️⚡️⚡️ Having someone skilled in managing radio traffic is far more important than which frequency you have your repeater set to. You can gain these skills by joining a local ham or GMRS club and participating in their radio nets. Also consider looking to see if you have a local Skywarn, RACES or ARES group. ⚡️⚡️⚡️\n\nThese kinds of set ups are frequently called a go-box .\n\n#hamradio #helene #gmrs #amateurradio #radio #emcomms #prepare #shtf #repeater #gobox #skywarn #races #ares \n\nhttps://youtu.be/nLMaZBO18a4","sig":"54839fe00aec4f929a683704c5d3053ac47587c6c6acfeff19526c446ab25c1d8fb9da95d5e24d8d164491d68d70ecc96add55acba8ef90c4dcdc74beae46b25"}
