I was going to ask "Who invites someone else to their hamshack?" But if he's bringing beer...
After hurricane Katrina, there was a deep dive by everyone involved, including the FCC.
In order for hams to use WiFi and digital modes, it is necessary to use the encryption in these systems. The FCC stated EXPLICITLY that hams CAN USE ENCRYPTION, as long as the encryption keys have been formally "published". Sending them to the FCC is the accepted way to do this.
So instead of saying "we have fifty dead" in cleartext, you can and often SHOULD send that message encrypted, for simple and real public safety.
Katrina didn't change enough--but it did bring some changes to ham and cellular policies.
Thanks Josh. Knowledge is power, but also essential to protecting our freedoms and loved ones. Thanks for all you do to educate the Amateur radio community, and the larger communities we’re apart of. 73
As an active-duty Army comms guy with experience, if these concepts and techniques interest you, I'd recommend checking out ATP 6-02.53 "Techniques for Tactical Radio Operations" which is approved for public release. It goes a bit deeper in certain areas which could be applied to HAM in "tactical/preparedness/GhostNet" scenarios. Thanks Josh!
I just bought that book last week. Thanks for stepping out and covering this.
read it last weekend. My 3 post-it flags are: 1,only give radios to people that know what their doing. 2, the claim that regular soldiers wouldn't have better gear than us. 3, OTP. I've seen SARNEG used many, many ways; most often for authentication, rarely encoding . A Baofeng is the most powerful and dangerous thing a prepper can carry. You can absolutely send digital over a Baofeng. I very much over thought the concept of cross band repeater. The book makes it simple.
Nice comment!
Great book! I gifted a copy to my father as well. NC Scout is legit.
That is a good read. Very well written. Highly recommend it.
I have one being delivered tomorrow. I am pretty familiar with Baofengs but I'm interested in the other topics covered too. One thing jumped out from my military days. "Repeat" is used to ask artillery to fire again. "Say again" is asking the operator to say again the last thing they said. I still stick to that with ham radio. I like the Signal Corps challenge coin from several of your videos. That was my branch in the Army. Thanks for another informative and entertaining video.
Of course his name isn’t ‘NC Scout’, that’s ridiculous!….. his real name is Brushbeater.
I believe the trigram is BBH 😅
great book, good radio. If I had this when I was a F/O the jungle antenna would have been a great help. As always thanks Josh and NC.
Randy just did an interview with the author over on his channel. Good stuff!
I only got a few minutes into it. I was excited to see it and will watch it in full later.
How about the site? Thanks.
Happen to have a link for that ?
-TIA-
@@metrotek5 NotARubicon channel. Videos. Scroll down slightly. “Interview with NC Scout […]”
Who's randy? (Not in the adjectival sense.)
I liked the book. He talks basics of course, but he has great detail on actual communication procedures actually used in actual practice that Ham guys don’t get into when making contacts. Nice cross-over !!!
💯 this
The book is great. Scout's classes let you try out some of the stuff and get hands on experience doing and troubleshooting things.
Got my tech license at the beginning of the year, but life happens and I haven't been able to do much of anything with it. This seems like a fun read to get me back into it. Love your videos!
@Fuzzstatic I got my ticket at the end of last year. I feel "life happens" on a biblical level. I've got a challenge for you for the next 8 weeks: If you haven't done it already, program your HT with the repeaters near you, within about 200 miles. (You might not know what repeaters are linked or when you'll travel further. I don't know.) Then, carry your radio with you in a pack, in your car, however you find least intrusive everywhere you go. Every time you "go mobile," throw out your call sign on a local repeater and make a contact. Three a day. Don't worry about logbooks or any crazy digital stuff. Just hop on, shout out and see who shouts back. Far more folks listen than talk, but most of us will hear "Kilo something six something something something, mobile/monitoring," and we can't help it: we call back, "Kilo something six something something something, November seven something something, yer full quieting." That's your chance to say, "Name here is Fuzz. How're you today?" Now you're talking. Commuting to work? Make a contact. Headed to the store? Make a contact. If you're sitting around at home watching TH-cam videos that aren't ham related, turn off your computer and walk outside, around the block, up on your rooftop if you have to, wherever you can "touch grass" or get away and use your scan function to see if you can find a net and throw out your call sign when they ask for visitor check-ins, or if you find an interesting pick-up/round robin throw out "comment," or "question," and when they acknowledge you give 'em your call sign and comment or question away on the topic they've got rolling. A lot of us call it "playing radio" for a reason, but instead of allowing it to be some distraction from life happens, let it be a refuge from it: the place you go to take a breath. It's kind of hard sometimes to "make time for a hobby," but it's much easier to justify if it's "self care." 73, de AI7UQ
Looks useful for shtf situation when the common rules are over ruled for emergency life or death matters. Thanks Josh.
Josh, thanks for walking us through it. I think the sooner we realize that the prepper types prefer these cheap little short-range radios for reasons that are not a threat to the ham hobby, the better. AND, I have seen some of the pure preppers "go legit" after learning the benefit of other services that can fill the need, like GMRS, and yes, even ham. 👍
I am a prepared minded person. I have a GMRS Licence . I'm using Josh's videos to study for Technician test. I want to be legal.
@@cucvfarmer that is a familiar order of progression. It's fairly contagious. Most that have come to me asking about it don't want to get into ham, so I am usually steering them towards GMRS, but except for a few near me and each other, it relies exclusively on repeaters. Thankfully, we have good coverage.
Yep. I think you are right.
Dear Josh, so glad you are highlighting Baofeng radios and a how-to book for them. There ARE better radios, no doubt. My first Ham radios were Baofengs - and they were good enough for the time. Got my General, working on my extra. You helped me along the way. Thank you. Keep it up! KQ4IXD
Have the book. My personal experience is most preppers buy a Feng, don't get their license, pack away their radio & never actually practice radio.
So........Don't do that.
Recently found you. Got Tech lic few years ago but then spend next years fighting a disease. Forgot everything I learned. Interesting book. Thank you for showing us.
One of his books is available to read on Kindle Unlimited.
I was born in Australia and have lived here my entire life, yet I have never seen anyone drink a Fosters beer. It became well-known through sports sponsorships like Formula 1, but it seems more like a mythical creature.
NC Scout knows his stuff! Good book. Great for those who want to be prepared.
Ya know, I never would’ve picked this up without someone telling me about the actual content in it. It’s been advertised to me repeatedly and I shrugged it off.
Werd.
The military does in fact call that a cobra head.
Josh marks books like me... lol
Thanks for sharing Josh. Looks like a good resource for locals plans.
Always good to be prepared! You never know when the Canadians may invade and force us to drink Moose Head beer and eat poutine! Thanks for the video! 73
Woah woah woah pal. We don’t joke about the war crime world champs.
Pootine's not as bad as it sounds, but I recommend caution regarding our hat.
Baofeng.. you should instead just polish a turd in the case of an emergency... lol
I love that book!
I'm British. Never need this, but got one ordered 😂. Looks educational.😊
They came up with NIN_er because it sounds different then the German word for NO which is NEIN.
Thanks!
Good read :-)
NC SCOUT is a great guy you should bring him on I want to go back and forth with him no meshtastic I think he has it wrong. I would also like to see NC scout and good old dad from S2UNDERGROUND have a conversation I think that would be interesting and probably the most viewed video ever🎉
Hah
@@re-dacted. 🤔
Andflmsg I've had this for years.
Good review. I got a copy a few years ago, read it, and put it away. As for practicing some of these applications, would it be permissable to do this with simple, inexpensive walkie- talkies available in sporting goods sites or Walmart?
Generally coded language is a no. But most of the rest can be practiced.
Yay new video
"niner" is international aeronautical speak for the number 9, as "nine" (sp?) is gernan word meaning NO.
Yep, tried this in a nationwide wife beater group, they rejected it for set programmed radios (frs 5w/gmrs 5w/ham chennels) all on one radio. Of course three letter agencies have their hands on all of these groups use of "comms", atak, digital, and of course membership lists.
Rattlegram is good for short messages ( 85 characters).
Video Topic idea-- Ham Radio distributors that accept Bitcoin fle purchases.
I just checked, there's nothing living up inside my head.
Your Pal Randy Interviewed N C Scout on his channel a week or so ago :-) I think Lewis is next. 14:44 p102 The radio is a Baofeng AR-152. He mentions it in his interview on NotARubicon. Appendix A: I am still trying to get it to work :-) In the UK folk would call this book 'Real Boys Own' stuff ... which is a compliment.
have baofengs got any better?
i had a 5r back in 2010, it died 2013.
Not really. 😅
Sure, there is a lot of good information but the writing style bothered me. NC needs a good editor.
Brevity Codes
Sorry I had hands in this book
Q Signals are for CW Moris code only and are not to be used voice.
This is false.
BBHS? …73!
Yeah, q-codes are all well and good. But the official national standards for emergency operations (ICS & NIMS) actually specify NO JARGON BY ANYONE AT ANY TIME. Because in an emergency or disaster where there are responders from many sources, someone is not going to habla your jargon. Even q-codes.
This book isn't intended to be used by someone contacting emergency responders in a disaster....hence the title of the book.
@lyfandeth 🥴👍
No use of jargon is a standard recommendation, not a law or official regulation. This is for official communication centers and or uniform incident command centers operations.
We use this stuff, cause our enemy uses this stuff !
First of all, make absolutely sure there are no exploding batteries in the radio before using it!
"we dont use encrypted communication"
we?....no... just you....... i have plans on some projects that will give people means of encrypting various brands and models of radios.
we have no obligation of any kind to let the world know what we are talking about....not even if some one has some fictional beliefs that say other wise.... not even if they name their fictional beliefs "the law"
For the Tacticool Operator..... If you have this book, a Baofeng UV-5R, and an AbbreeeeEEEEEeeeee antenna, you will be unstoppable during the Zombie Apocalypse!
BYOBMF! GGG!
1:28.... QSL is an abbreviation, not an acronym... An acronym is very specific form of abbreviation whereby the initial letters form an abbreviation that's said as a word - NASA, AIDS, RADAR, SCUBA etc are acronyms, QSL is not, as we don't say "Quessel"...
