This new and informative book covers in depth the many types of communications systems that are available to anyone in time of need, detailing where these can be found - on shortwave, amateur radio, citizens band, federal services, weather services, overseas news services, plus many more important sources of vital information and programming. "Survival Communications" shows you where to find the necessary equipment, how to choose the proper equipment, and build your communications system. It also outlines ways to keep in touch with your friends using simple radio equipment without having to take a radio license test of any kind. The book helps you build and setup your systems using emergency power sources, many types of inexpensive solar power systems, small generator systems, and back-up emergency battery systems that work when the power grid goes down. It also covers how you can build and use inexpensive satellite radio systems that can be powered by alternate power sources such as solar, wind, generator or battery systems.
