    After the EMP/Solar Flare/Grid Hack

    Today's Mylar balloons equal WWII's aluminum chaff. I recently took a power company safety class at CERT training, and they demo'ed what Mylar balloons do when they contact power lines. They will definitely cause a power outage. Never do balloon releases with Mylar balloons! And be careful...

    Something New Coming from Surefire?

    My guess is they didn't change back then because they felt they didn't have to. With government contracts likely a large part of their revenue, they were probably making plenty of money until the contracts came up for review, and the buyer(s) started making noise about their competition's...

    Small Portable Radio's?

    Well, I looked over both radios, and I like both of them. I think the EP will have greater longevity due to the analog tuner vs a digital display, and that is important to me. I also like the flagship 2E, but it lacks the FM antenna input F connector that the EP has! Some mistake, IMO. The...

    Small Portable Radio's?

    I don't know if the AC bypasses the batteries or not, my guess is it does, but, if you are using alkaline cells and you will have the radio plugged in for an extended time, it is best to remove the batteries due to the possibility of them leaking inside the radio. I have had really good luck...

    Small Portable Radio's?

    My GE Superadio is getting long in the tooth now, and may not last much longer. Any suggestions for a comparable quality current production radio?

    Small Portable Radio's?

    Re: Small Portable Radios? I have removed the prohibited speech from my post. I try very hard to avoid political comments on this forum, believe it or not.

    Small Portable Radio's?

    Re: Small Portable Radios? What cracks me up is that (and I know this is difficult to believe) some people don't think of cell phones as radios, which, of course, they are. As a radio, cell phone transmissions are subject to reception and monitoring, which is why all scanners designed for...

    Las Vegas shooting...

    I understand that, but it makes no sense. Closer does not equal more lethal.

    Help us to improve Armytek tactical flashlights.

    I don't think anyone disputes that other nations can and do produce high quality products. The issue is the dissipation of US wealth and the decline of the USA in general due to importing goods that used to be produced here. At one time the USA was the the work shop of the world, and products...
