A zine that introduces amateur radio, the electromagnetic spectrum as a public good we all share, and why you should care about it. A brief overview of how to get a license, some examples of decentralized and resilient communication from around the world and how you can use it for organizing...

First off, is a radio scanner worth it? It may tell me where the train is going and when its stopping, or an indication I've been spotted, but those can all be visually confirmed. If it is worth it, I'm looking for a lower power, cheaper radio scanner that can pick up Rail Frequencies at a...

Hey StP members and guests: I'm sure when you're on the road you have a radio and listen to Coast to Coast AM to pass time which is nationwide radio show late in the wee hours of the night. Subjects talked about; UFOs, Bigfoot, Missing Persons, Ghosts, etc. (btw David Pauldies will be on this...

Hey all, Had the idea of drawing up this list for traveling, so that I could get a feel for the culture of a place and also the campaign struggles the people face. Most are available to stream online so I can learn more before I go or deciding where to go, while others are a local only treat...

I've been searching around on here and seen several posts about CB Radio, Ham Radio, GMRS & FRS Radio, and Scanners; but nothing about MURS Radio. MURS stands for Multi-Use-Radio-Service. MURS uses five frequencies in the VHF Band on FM. Those frequencies are: Channel 1 151.820 Mhz (Narrow...

alright y'all, I'm interested in hearing what podcasts you like. I'm on a bike most all of the time and that being the case, I listen to a lot (I mean a LOT) of auto books and podcast. So I really interested to learn what all y'all are into. I currently listen to the following...

Pretty good video about installing a CB on your bike. I think I may install this on my motorized recumbent trike so that I have the option of being social anywhere I'm at, or radioing for help / weather updates, or maybe even finding some work (?). I even wonder whether, as a bike tourer, it'd...

Hey guys! I'm starting a radio show at my college based on punk, metal, folk, bluegrass, etc. However, I'm planning on basing it around the DIY lifestyle. If you have any ideas for things I should talk about, post them here. If you want to listen, hit me up for details!

I'm about to get my first CB and I'm confused about what accessories? Components? I need. I read you should spend more on your antenna than your radio, so I'm saving up for a basic Uniden Pro 505XL and a 4' Firefly antenna that I'm planning to install next to my rear brake light on my Chevy...

I'm totally loving on this at the moment. You can zoom around the globe listening to live radio from all over the place. http://radio.garden/ Here's a article explaining it a bit more...

Hey folks, just wanted to let you all know about this interview I did with the Cake or Death Radio podcast. Melanie and her partner drove all the way up from San Antonio to meet up with me in Austin, Texas to chat a bit about the Squat the Planet website, my background, and my personal...

So just before christmas I got asked by friends to go on their radio show to have a chat. I managed to get a little plug in for STP and I chat a tiny bit about living in a van and squatting. Its only community radio so nothing grand and we are a bit silly on it but if you want a listen the link...

Cause I just scored 2 used blackberrys that are still good for service..all I have to is putt 100.00 and I am good for the year.

Alright, the radio podcast I helped out with last night is up! I got so nervous and I suck at answering questions on the spot- Damn, SO INARTICULATE!!! Twas' a product of nervousness. Said 'awesome' and 'absolutely and 'you know' wayyy tooo many times! :blush: Ah,besides all that... it was...

**I wasn't exactly sure where to post this, sorry in advance if I'm in the wrong here :D I got to listen to one of the episodes of Lee's Radio show (creator of "there's Something About a Train" and "Hobos from Hell") and I really liked it, but couldn't seem to find any more episodes. As far as...

All radio has the potential to cause cancer, and other complications in living creatures. Why someone chose this, i don't know..."Opponents have claimed that AM radio waves can harm people and wildlife." AM is simply a transmit mode, like FM, or SSB. Wattage is much more of a factor, as is the...

So I've been wanting to do this for a while but my knowledge on radio technology is somewhat lacking, as well as my knowledge on FCC law. Does anybody know exactly what it would take to get a radio station started and if so where would be the best place to broadcast.

Radioshack is having a close-out on Pro-84 scanners. They are very similar to the beloved Pro-83. They even come with big dumbass headphones but it is an in store only sale. http://www.radioshack.com/product/index ... age=family I may pick one up for a spare. This is probably the best...
