Prepper's Communication Handbook, Preppers

The ultimate guide to acquiring, assembling and utilizing life-saving emergency communication systems.

When disaster strikes, your calls, texts and emails may not work. After 9/11, Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Sandy, cell phones were rendered useless when transmission towers were destroyed, and networks became overloaded. Having an alternative way to reach family and loved ones at these critical moments is essential. With Prepper's Communication Handbook, you learn the best tips, tricks and expert secrets for surviving when phones and the Internet fail.

Exploring the best options for every disaster scenario, this hands-on guide features in-depth coverage on a wide variety of lifesaving emergency communication systems, including:

* Satellite Radio

* Shortwave

* NOAA Receiver

* GMRS and FRS Radios

* Citizen’s Band

* Ham Radio

* Radio Scanners

* MURS Radio

If you’re looking for a “take you by the hand” approach to learning how to set up a ham rig, look elsewhere.  The focus here is on providing an overview of all the different communication tools out there, allowing you to decide for yourself which ones are best suited for your needs, situation, and experience level.

After discussing the various communication tools available, the focus turns to improving communication skills, such as conflict resolution and interpreting body language.  Without these skills, tools are all but useless. With Prepper’s Communication Handbook, you will find all the basic skills you need to prepare to stay connected when the grid goes down.
