Simple Two Way Radio for Preppers

[Highlander]

Although I dont understand all of whats being said her, I do understand enough,..I think...,.. NR,.. I really do see what you are trying to say, it would be so good to be able to buy a radio to do the things you want,... but sadly I dont think the radio that does what you want has been invented,.. there are simple to opperate radios out there, but you will never ever get the range that your poll of preppers would like from those simple to use radios, even with repeaters,..and if they go down you will be lucky to get 2 miles in an Urban enviroment.... as I dont fully understand everything yet, I may be wrong

I purchased a duel band UV-ER, I hope it will do the job, but in order to get anything that is any good, I am finding that the UV-5R is very complicated,..although I will have to master it, as I do need another one

I am following these communication posts with a lot of interest

Lightspeed,... I found that the yellow writing is very hard to read
