I'm hoping to get some input from the group on which of the HF bands might be best for keeping groups across the country informed if something happens to take down the communications or power grids, which are likely to happen if the country breaks down into civil war or martial law is declared. We need to be able to keep each other in the loop, so the first question to address is, which band would be most suitable? If you have an opinion this is the place to voice it, along with the reasoning behind your choice. The idea is to form a net, similar to 2 meter repeater nets, but nationwide in scope. Info from the national net could be re-broadcast locally using the lower bands from 2 meter through 12 meter and perhaps the CB bands as well. Any ideas?

Jonesey,
Excellent links actually and makes me feel better about having picked this up at the last hamfest for $300. Yes, I still need a mic and power supply, but the second link provided some ideas on compatible units. Thanks!

The hams in other countries will be listening, but not the people in the streets.
