Ham Radio vs Walkie Talkie, what a strange topic of discussion. But this is a term that is often searched on YouTube, so today I was explain the differences between a Ham Radio, a Handheld Ham Radio HT, and a Walkie Talkie.

After some events at the US Capitol the FCC issued a statement, warning us not to use airwaves for illegal activity. PLUS they want to start charging a $35 fee for Ham Radio Licenses. Today I meet with the YouTubers Bunch to discuss these new topics.FCC Notice: https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-21-73A1.pdfBe sure and subscribe to these great channels:K8MRD Radio Stuff: http://youtube.com/k8mrdradiostuffKyle - AA0Z: https://www.youtube.com/kyleaa0zSevenForty1: https://www.youtube.com/user/sevenforty1DX Commander - https://www.youtube.com/user/m0mcxGoodgame Ham Radio, Bees, and Outdoors - https://www.youtube.com/goodgamehamradiobeesoutdoorsTemporarily Offline - https://youtube.com/temporarilyofflineHam Radio TV - https://www.youtube.com/hamradiotvK6ARK Portable Radio - https://www.youtube.com/user/Vector511c

This is an After Chat, following the Texas Snowmegeddon Livestream from Sunday, Feb 21

This week was the Texas Snowmageddon - The first Winter Storm of 2021 and it was a record-breaking event for weather all across Texas. We saw record lows temps, record snowfall, and record outages of power, water and communications.What did I learn? What can WE learn from this? Were we not prepared? How can we become more prepared for future events and more Self Reliant?Tonight I will share my thoughts about this event, the Winter Storm 2021 experiences I had this past week, and how I plan to prepare for them next time. Your input and thoughts are welcome!
