Then, after a couple years, something went goofy with this website, can't remember what, it became impossible to figure out how to post any more...well, whatever...and the site went down my memory mousehole.
In short, is there currently any such alternative to turn to in case of "no FR". A number of days ago, I and others couldn't raise FR....there was no place to go to....and I had to call a Freeper relative in another state to see if she was raising our forum.
If anyone can help out here, let me know.
Thanks, Leni/MinuteGal
Leni, you are a pistol with the right rounds:
“My motto is “Do unto liberals as they do unto us, POW!”
Thank you for bringing this up and past related FR contingency efforts.
All - This is a Big deal.
Please, can anyone help brainstorm a way to achieve two essential Emergency communication objectives for our FR community when the Internet is down?
1. Where can we best stay tuned to reliable information news / situation report updates when the Internet is down?
Trunews.com shortwave 9395 kHz radio, and other alt-media independent shortwave stations?
2. How can we safely and discretely share our contact info and communicate with one another when the Internet is down? And when internet Email addresses won’t work, shortwave HF packet radio Winlink email might be the only way?
