    Mine says IG under radio service industrial/business So I definitely need to take the exam to get my amateur/ ham license. Just a quick search of my local clubs ,they say testing suspended cuz of covid ,but I'm sure there is some sort of online resource to take the test ? For technician?

    inexpensive comms (baofeng)

    Shoot I'm honestly not sure, I'm going to assume it's a business license as we have hundreds of employees use this radio system on a daily basis. I'm pretty damn green/ignorant to this ham stuff. Its a new rabbit hole for me but definitely has piqued my interest. Would you be able to see...

    inexpensive comms (baofeng)

    So I have the gmrs license (got it for business use) the fcc did assign me a callsign and a block of uhf frequencies for our business. My question is am I allowed to hop on ham frequencies (2m and 70cm) and repeaters and talk since I have a callsign? Or am I restricted to the gmrs frequencies?

    SafeLife belt owners?

    Are you happy with the overall quality of it ? The only reason I'm hesitant on ordering one is due to the fact it is 2" and might not fit thru some of my clothes and I saw a couple people post that the tactical version (with molle) was to thick for mounting teklok mounting solutions to the belt...

    SafeLife belt owners?

    Does the safelife not fit thru a normal pair of jeans? I've been debating on the belt as well since it pops up on my feed every other minute. Also how long did it take for you to get the belt ? The site says ships same day. But a bunch of comments on their Facebook has people complaining that...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Sig 365

    Definitely post your thoughts after running the hellcat thru a few range sessions. I've been looking at either a 365 or a hellcat for EDC. And since 2020 blows ,I can't fondle each of these side by side at gun store to see what feels better. The hellcat does seem intriguing 🤔

    Rifle Scopes New long(ish) range shooter - Vortex, Primary Arms, or something else?

    Razor vs pst2 is night and day imo. I had the pst2 and felt like it was lacking at distance in the glass dept. I got the razor 2 and the difference in just the glass was considerably better in the razor. If your budget us around 1500 there is no reason not to get the razor, you will be pleased...

    Dumb civilian question for LEOs. military & preppers

    John Lovells take on bugging out, or dig in. Key points being if you plan on trying to defend a home in the suburbs etc or even property , it needs to be more than you and your wife defending it. It's not realistic for you to run security 24/7.
