EDC compass

[Pete Grey]

Hi MB when I said UK and the USA are very different I mean in area and population density, the area I live in has 6500 per sq. mile when the US average is about 90 people per sq. mile , your area being a close rural community would be even lower. As you say a nuclear bombardment on the US would have areas untouched but in the UK we would all be little piles of ash, I do plan my preps for an all out nuclear war. On the other hand a single weapon detonated over Belgium would probably fry the electronics in most of western europe. The information you gave on CME pulses is most helpful if we can reset items by switching off, waiting then switching on again.

The ammo box I use for faraday protection is about 2ft.x1ft.x1ft, at the moment it is big enough, I would love to keep ammunition in it but they took our guns away 20 years ago over here.

SS thank you for your ideas, as you say if the faraday box doesn’t work we’ll wait in silence until the meds run out like MB.

LS thanks for the reminder about earth bonding I was relying on the lid fitting well enough and 3 layers of aluminium foil.
