Just curious to see if anyone ever takes any type of two-way radio for emergency contact or an emergency beacon incase needed.
I'm potentially shopping for a very high quality 2 or 5 watt GMRS two-way radio for emergency contact while deep in remote areas.
I'm not sure what the best option is as far as frequency band if I were to go the 2-way radio route....I have read a bit about FRS and GMRS as well as the other VHF and etc. So far it seems GMRS would be the way to go???
I am also not completely sure what other kinds of options there are for emergency contact if there is no cell phone service in the area...so any help would be greatly appreciated.
