In this video, I will explain how Radio Bands or Radio Frequencies work by showing the different Amateur Radio (HAM) Radio frequencies, CB Radio frequencies, MURS channels, and GMRS Radio frequencies. This video will help you understand the technical differences between the different radio systems and help you make the best choice for your communication needs.
Ultimately, this is a prepping channel, so I'll share why I chose GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) is the superior choice for simple, reliable local communications, with decent range, that can be used in a true #shtf emergency. In this video, I'll cover:
→ An Overview of the Different Radio Bands and How they Work
