Just sitting here thinking about my life and all that's happened, and how I've come to realize SO MUCH is out of my hands and control
Even with a 101% Conservative American vote on EVERYthing that a president agrees to and signs ....
It'll be at least two years before any changes actually BEGIN to happen
Some of us are old enough to realize ... WE won't realize much .. or any .. change
I still have my CB that worked when I retired two years ago ... not much range ... about 5 mi ... but ...
How feasable would a CB network be ... if for no other reason than to converse with (maybe) like minded conservatives ?
Lookin' to learn anything I can from FReepers
We’ll just go back to FIDOnet
You need to look into amateur “ham” radio. Get the license asap. Way more range and options than CB radio.
I agree with CT. Get a HAM radio and learn how to do both voice and data. I got to general class with little effort and enjoy the range we have, for now. Only a matter of time, I fear, that the FCC will start pulling more spectrum from us.
Check out http://www.skywarnonline.com/index.php?pageid=becomeaham for loads of information on getting an amateur radio license.
An “alternet”, or alternative internet, will hopefully be developed by those who prefer the omission of government oversight. I’m sure the tech is available, and thousands, if not millions of folks will migrate to it. Let the government keep Al Gore’s invention while business moves ahead with a new and improved product.
Amateur radio would be better. Infrastructure already in place.

If you like your ham radio, you will be able to keep your ham radio. Period.
No one will take them away. No matter what.
