    It's cool yes. But my wonder is if it will be on anyone's mind when things go south.

    In a lawless world, could you trust anyone that said hello back?

    I think the point is to keep in contact with friends and family. Maybe it would be used to blast news or alerts in a time of war idk yet, I just ordered some radios a few days ago and I am waiting to get started with it.

    Yeah I'm thinking for flooding and generalized chaos but not a direct emergency.

    No idea about an appocalypse situation, I don't have solar so all my gadgets are going down anyway. And not that many solar nodes around me
