So why not start up your own DU-centric streaming radio show? |
|
Hell, Skinner could even set one up and make it official. http://www.spacialaudio.com/products/sambroadcaster/

It would be a good backup for internet,just in case.C.B. radio is sort of like like the original chatrooms.The 4 watt limit doesn't go very but in Mexico they use linear amplifiers which are illegal here.

3. Ham radio is a highly specialized medium. |
|
You won't find a ham radio rig, even a receiver, in every home. I should know- my father was a ham.
As an emergency broadcast medium, it can't be beat- the mechanism has been in place for many years. But it's still limited to those who have the receivers to pick it up.
As for C.B., that's a different animal altogether, and as you say it's limited to a very short range. Besides, that's a rage that died with the general population years ago. It went back to being mostly a trucker thing, which is cool. They need it. Your average bear bait speed demon doesn't even know it exists.
