    In this video I re-visit the Baofeng AR-152 ham radio - a high-power, unlocked UHF radio perfect for SHTF, civil unrest, emergencies and even World War III.. The AR-152 is perfect for emergency communications because it is UNlocked, meaning that it can transmit on ham radio frequencies, GMRS, MURS, and many other frequency ranges. The large buttons and easy-to-read screen also make this a good choice for preppers or anyone that wants a emergency radio that works outdoors and in bright sunlight. Of course, because this is a ham radio the FCC says that you must have an amateur radio license (ham radio license) to transmit on the AR152 radio, but no license is required to purchase, own, posess or or listen to the Baofeng AR-152 or any other ham radio.

      Im sorry for asking a stupid question. Could you make a video to deconfuckulate my brain on how to use this radio for efficiency, emergency, and for the general moron like myself how to use it. Pretty please with Baofeng on top? Basically, how to set up and use one, please great G-d of radios.

    The beauty of this particular radio is that, like the large Magsafe flashlights, it doubles as a weapon. I think if you purchase the telescoping, heavy steel baton/antenna, this could be a good device to talk to friends, or fiight off coyotes or mountain lions. The only thing that it misses a light shining from the bottom so it can be used to blind your opponent before striking them with the antenna.
