Happy Birthday to the Greatest- On your 80th, know that your music has inspired a Legion; Country Boys, Working Men, Fighting Men, and Men that don't ask permission to do what it takes- Nowhere in the Army did I not meet hard men who couldn't sing along to The Devil Went Down to Georgia or …
EARC-HI End Feds Back In Stock-
A birdy dropped a message this morning that the EARC-HI antennas are back in stock and ready to ship. The demand there for a while was beyond the means of production, but they're caught up. This is my go-to for an inexpensive, easily modifiable, rapidly deployable, effective antenna. Check out my review, then consider picking …
Coming Soon: CommRadio CTX-10
It's a great time to be into Survivalist Communications. It's a great time to be into Survivalism, period. Sure, the world sucks. We're on track to reignite the Cold War. The flames keep being fanned higher and higher here at home. The economy is borderline insane. Yep, all that. And yet, the technology out there …

Over the weekend I had a great opportunity to meet some kind and very generous folks at the 10th NC PATCON. Among the broad topics demonstrated and discussed, a few items of interest stood out in my mind as needing more attention from a Survivalist paradigm rather than the usual Small Unit Patrolling concepts. The reason …

Pressure Bursting a Pipe, and other thoughts
Note- I've been swamped with duties elsewhere for the past couple weeks, between extensive studies in a foreign language and preparing for the winter (I heat with wood).

Remember Me? You know, you left me to die on 9-11 (a different 9-11 though) Hillary...what difference does it make? What difference does it make now? They couldn't drag me to a van. Payback's a Bitch, Hag.
