Just thinking aloud. GEOTUS controls the internet, or he doesn’t - anyway, the sheer number of y’all is going to dick the cell networks good and hard, even if they supplement the regular towers with spy towers.
Any (licensed) oldsters in the area who want to help but aren’t sure how? Anyone own a portable set they’re bringing? I’m willing to sit up listening on 20 30 or 40, and pass on what I hear.
Pedestrian portable Hf is tough but doable - I imagine it’d be horrid in a crowd, yeah. Was thinking more like, if you’ve got a mobile rig, park it on the top floor of the garage and use it in case something bad happens.
