Prepping 101 - my take on some entry level information to help get you prepared for whatever might happen. The world is pretty weird right now, so it's a great time to start thinking about preparedness. In this video I talk (a lot) about communication - why it's important, the tools that best facilitate it, and just some all around good info to think about. I dive (briefly) into meshtastic, frs radio, gmrs radio, ham radio or amateur radio, cb radio, and a few other tools that you might want to incorporate. Hope you in enjoy the first episode of prepping 101.
