ONGOING RADIO COMMUNICATIONS PRACTICE OPPORTUNITIES:
Weekly Walkie-Talkie Radio Check-In: Every Sunday at 10 am: Channel 20 (or Ch 16 if 20 is busy), we check-in around the Valley to see how far our voices can be heard. We practice checking-in, moving locations around the home until someone can hear us. Simple radios are a good source of emergency communication with your immediate area.
