I have difficulty with the 'metal trading experts' that tell us that Gold will be rocketing up and Silver will be more than that - and then try to sell us theirs. If you are a metal trading expert wouldn't you want to keep the gold in your basement - if you don't are you really telling me that the price will rocket so you can dump worthless metal on me?

I know, right? This was definitely a sell silver phase, too. They knew that. My hedge fund startup. Finished the first trading year with a 138% return. A little more volatile than silver but silver moved around a lot this year too. And with no TSLA or cryptos involved.

I am wondering how much data ham radio can carry. spectrum.ieee.org/geek-life/hands-on/build-a-longdistance-data-network-using-ham-radioImagine a network of mobile repeater vans, carrying equipment running off strong alternators or small generators. The HT Baofeng UV5R 8 watts can reach across cities when equipped with $10 aftermarket antennas, and access these pirate radio signal repeaters. Could we have an emergency, non FCC approved Internet? At least for data sharing and communication. It should be possible to stretch this across the continent. "It took six years, but the result is New Packet Radio (NPR), which I chose to publish under my call sign, F4HDK, as a nom de plume. It supports today’s de facto universal standard of communication—the Internet’s IPv4—and allows data to be transmitted at up to 500 kilobits per second on the popular 70-centimeter UHF ham radio band. Admittedly, 500 kb/s is not as fast as the megabits per second that flow through amateur networks such as the European Hamnet or U.S. AREDN, which use gigahertz frequencies like those of Wi-Fi. But it is still faster than the 1.2 kb/s normally used by AX.25 links, and the 70-cm band permits long-distance links even when obstructions prevent line-of-sight transmissions."

The HT Baofeng UV5R 8 watts can reach across cities when equipped with $10 aftermarket antennas, and access these pirate radio signal repeaters. Could we have an emergency, non FCC approved and non-centralized Internet? At least for data sharing and communication. I would look at WIMACS (WIMAX / AEROMACS) wimaxforum.org/ It is a kind of grown up WiFi with a similar protocol ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.16) but line of sight range and the protocol can do its own backhaul. Used a lot in Africa with a container based generator and WIMACS processor and antenna. All the hardware is available and as it is standards based it is easy to add encryption. www.facebook.com/trustedHACKERBOY/The idea is that you can set up a WIMAX tower and then distribute the output either using WIMAX to the surrounding houses or just a powerful WiFi dependent on the range. If you set up a network of WIMAX towers with diverse routing (as the internet was meant to work) then the network is difficult to take down. Of course Elon Musk space based network Starlink ( www.starlink.com/ ) - is in test phase - not sure how secure that is but if you can see the sky you have internet broadband. His current rates for a connection as an initial tester are $99. Imagine a WIMAX network across an area with one (or more) site also having a Starlink up/down link providing world wide internet access. Run everything using TOR could be interesting.

There are apps which allow you to use cell phones as walkie talkie radios. I wonder about creating a peer to peer data network with cell phones, independent of cell towers, phone companies, and the Internet. Your phone would always be transmitting open data at all times.

I'll study this yes it sounds really interesting.

You guys are going to put out a plug and play training manual for us wannabes, right? Any time, I'm ready.

Hint: Low Freq radio is the most reliable. Morse code is hard to screw with, even with attempted jamming.

Yeah I'm thinking about this this afternoon. They are going to put on a real show I guess.
