Wrong again there is every point in reading these threads and trying to get a system that works, FYI I have been having this debate for over 12 years now on various forums trying like SD to get a simple basic reliable system that anyone can use without having to play James Bond or play silly buggers. This forum is for PREPPERS first and formost NOT radio hobbyists.

.....all you need is your user name after contact to know you are talking to a forum member

And if the prepper has don his preps properly he will have met and spoken to his opposite numbers in person and know what they sound like and have enough simple knowledge about ones opposite number to be able to work out if the caller is who he says to be, its that simple.
