Summary

HAM radios can be used for communication during a complete grid down.

The handheld BaoFeng UV-5R is a popular entry level radio, and a great addition to a bug-out bag. A programming cable allows for entry of multiple different programmed frequencies, from a computer running the free CHIRP software.
