I'm increasingly worried about the possibility of Trump's 'coronation'. I was never a prepper minded sort, but now I'm thinking of stockpiling some basics. On the list is a way to communicate with my sister and brother in-law if phone services are down. They live 2.1 miles via Mapquest, less as the crow flies. It's the suburbs, the only tall structure is a 10 story seniors apartment building, just off the line of sight. A cell phone tower is about 1/4 mile west off the line of sight.
I know that handheld CB's and FRS type radios don't come anywhere near their advertised claims of range, but... will it be a waste of money to get a pair? If not, which? CB or FRS?
Thanks .
Need advice about frs and gmrs radios.
