A bit of an extra late response if you will forgive me ?, One of our prime prepper concerns is OPSEC, and part of OPSEC is movement and patrolling, and in patroling their are certain golden rules usually refered to as SSSSSM Shape, Shine, Shadow, Sound, Silhouette and Movement, IE going up hilltops is an absolute no no if you are likely to expose your location to watchers. Your broadcasts must really be made without sitting on a hilltop.
