Over on the Survival UK Forum Lightspeed is making an interesting proposal for anyone interested in trying out a complete easy to use radio station. Here is the article he posted. If you are interested get over there to register your interest.
FREE: Emergency Preparedness radio station
For a while I’ve been harping on about the value of being able to communicate by radio across the UK. Indeed I honestly feel that this is the holy grail of post SHTF radio communications.Other than the confirmed radio men who are on the SUK forum there has been not very much interest from others.
So, to try and stimulate interest, I’ve decided to put my money where my mouth is.
I’m building a complete ready-to-use radio station that I’ll send completely free of charge to any Forum member who would like to evaluate it, to see what such equipment looks like in the flesh, and to try using it.
The idea is that this station will be passed to an member interested on a free of charge loan basis, and that it be passed on from one member to the next.
All I ask is for an evaluation to be posted on this thread, and for the station to be returned either to me, or sent onto the next member wishing to try it out. (the whole thing will be a small package about the size of a large paper back book)
Please complete the poll and PM me if you would like me to send a test station to you.

That’s a fabulous offer. I’d like to but again, it’s time just now. Shall talk with Skeane on it.
would you be willing to list out the spec. I wouldnt mind trying to build one myself
I’m probably not capable of adding much in the way of technical or financial help but I agree that radio is essential to post paradigm communications, great project!
What kind of range is your equipment and does it require a licence…what am I saying, we’re in the UK…everything needs a licence.😂
