The Future of Amateur Radio

I think there is little doubt that the Left (Literal Effin’ Forces of Tyranny) seeks to control all human communication on Earth. To do that, they need to get America in compliance. 

Lots of luck with that. 

But, they have made substantial progress. They’ve captured the Legacy Media, Legacy 

Social Media, and made public displays of Dissidence an offense that costs people their jobs, their education opportunities, and their licenses to practice a trade. They’ve used their power over financial entities to shut down many alternatives to These forms of communications.

They’ve shut us in our houses, attacked those displaying signs ON THEIR OWN PROPERTY, and arrested people for Dissident Protests (when they weren’t using the cops to beat them mercilessly).

Amateur radio has been considered by some to be a viable means of connecting with others. Others in the resistance say that it’s control by government makes it a poor choice.  It’s regulated by FCC guidelines (although the training, licensing, and much of the local activities are managed by other amateurs).

Some preppers, suspicious of any connection to any government entity, refuse to get a license to operate a radio, instead choosing to operate in “pirate” mode. I do understand their concerns, however, I think it sometimes preferable to work with government, even if it gets you on their official radar.

I’m of the belief that both getting a license, and also joining a club are better choices. The license offers you both official sanction, but also the support of the radio community, should you be targeted by government (assuming you are operating under normal good practices).

The clubs ar3 intended for mutual support, and will generally be composed of operators at varying levels of expertise. One thing almost all have in common is a willingness to help others learn about, and enjoy the hobby.
