Excellent video. Your idea of replacing the Motorola’s with the Baofeng
will also give the safety of redundancy should the unmentionable happen to
the Yaesu.
Excellent video, well produced and good content for what you cover. But I
can’t think of a scenario where this bag would be helpful where you would
not also want some basic first aid supplies, a simple flashlight, a
multitool or swiss army knife (or both), some rope (paracord), maybe some
zip ties, etc. Meaning while I think this is excellent, it appears
deficient for anything except hobby radio enjoyment during non-emergency.
In a real emergency you’ll want some capabilities besides communication.
I’d be tempted to drop the two walkie talkies as this is a small sized kit
anyhow and replace with a flashlight, multitool and mini first aid kit.
You have a unique voice. Nice adaptation of a first aid kit and a well
organized kit overall. Informative. Great idea to budget for emergency
supplies.
just a couple minor observations, first thanks so much for sharing your
setup, very well done sir. How about an all-weather softcase to help
further protect your radio if it gets used during less than ideal
environmental conditions? Here’s the sort I’m talking about, it probably
won’t fit your as I selected a random one: (sorry my link died} Also you
might consider a “write in the rain” note tablet, and a space pen of some
kind to round it all off.
You have an NPR voice 🙂 and for persons with a few extra dollars look at
the amateur radio Hand helds that have AM radio receive as well then you
can get local radio all in one package.
You have a good voice sir!

awesome, thanks so much!
this has been just what i was looking for! your kit is a great insperation
for what i would like to have
No DC power cable for connecting to a Car or other 12 volt source?
Your right, It probably wont matter whether you talk on a ham radio when
there is a disaster
Good info and nice video production quality. Good job.

You need a license to transmit, you do not need a license to RECEIVE (aka
monitor) messages though.

Exactly, mostly for monitoring purposes since the transmitting range is not
that great.
