GP-4L SURVIVAL RADIO
A few of these for bug-out and/or barter might be nice to have... |
Re: GP-4L SURVIVAL RADIO
Wouldn't surprise me if it didn't come equipped with a hidden transmitter and GPS to locate and eavesdrop on the person it was delivered to.

Re: GP-4L SURVIVAL RADIO
Of course we all have it in our cell phones anyway. :banghead:

Re: GP-4L SURVIVAL RADIO
Got a couple of cheap JWIN am-fm-sw radios for under $10 wholesale a couple years ago, but they only go down to 6 MHz. These are $25 and go down to 5.20 MHz and are about half the size, would like to try one out.

any suggestions on something small and portable that actually works well? |

Grundig, try the 300PE for a small portable unit or if you like tabletop sideband performance try the old 400 Yacht Boy. I use the 300PE as my clock radio on the nightstand and a tiny 100PE for shirt pocket portable. . |

The truth is Curtman, you wouldn't get the 150hrs rated usage time out of this if there was a GPS transmitter on board. Transmitters suck DC like there's no tomorrow. Run a current check using Ohm's law to tell if ANY of your devices are doing this. |

Grundig Mini 100PE Radio is a good cheapo radio. Digital tuning costs more. Sony is way overpriced. I am happy with my Grundig Traveller VII but it is no longer available. Gotta shop around. Be sure to get a cheapo long optional external antenna. :wavey: |

STAY AWAY FROM CHEAP DIGITAL TUNERS.... They are garbage. The high end digital ones like the ICOMs are nice, but very pricey. |

Yup, digital tuning, fairly small and portable, my desktop clockradio. I can almost guarantee that CIA black-ops hasn't installed a GPS locator in it but you might want to check with GIMs Alcoa Alumni before you buy ... h |

Nice for the homebase though..... http://search.ebay.com/yaesu-frg-7_W...romZR8QQfsopZ1 |
Re: GP-4L SURVIVAL RADIO
Does it make poached eggs too ?
I think that's considered a general communications reciever, not a portable shortwave rig. |

My survival radio is a Yaesu VX7-R. Scans from 500kHz to 999MHz. I can pick up AM, SW, FM, AM aircraft, TV audio, and much more. Transmits FM on 4 different ham bands.
It's easy to attach a long wire to the tip of the antenna for low band/SW reception. Operates from included Li-ion battery, 120VAC charger, or a 12V car adapter. |

A carry handle doesn't make it realistically "portable" SF. It just means you can move it with one hand. Quote:

You shouldn't laugh, its a terrible affliction, nobody wants anything to do with you until they need something fixed. The world will shun you. Call you a nerd. Forced to wear a pocket protector. Auh, the horror of the DISease. h |
