Excellent ideas; thanks for the reminder. I've been telling myself that I need to set up a "go" bag for some time now. I have enough radio-related items to fill a bug-out bag, and then some. All I really need is to get a decent waterproof backpack and put the stuff I have into it. Need to buy some more batteries though; lots more batteries. Perhaps a portable power supply as well. We don't have any seismic or even many weather-related emergencies where I live, but I do live one block east of a busy railroad track, and who knows what those cars are carrying besides multiple graffiti tags. The Pro-34 looks kinda bride-of-Frankensteinish compared to my other rigs. Cool in a retro way, but not as cool as the 1930's Philco cathedral radio that's also next to me. I like the juxtaposition of these two retro-rigs, one on either side of me as I'm typing this. :-) Jackie -------------------------- If you can stand the Ot political BS, http://groups.google.com/group/misc.survivalism can be a usefull, though frustrating NG. Whne cooler weahter gets here I am going to put a R390 into service. The waste heat will be usefull, and my wife's cat loves the heated top. My first SWs, a Zenith and a Heath GR64, are so deaf compared to anyh o fmy modern SW, even when compared to the Grundig "emergency" FR200, that I really ought to toss them. But like my first decent CB HT, a Midland 13-110H 2Ch (100mW!), I just can't bring myself to gfet rid of them. Too many memories. While school taught me some things, trying to get a "better" antenna, to listen and talk further really did me a favour and got me started in electronics. Terry |
