Hello all.
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
Hi Jerry.
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
The park is open !!!
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Anyone on the net so I can check and see if I can get on tonight?
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Excellent!
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
I'm listening and you can also play the player below.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Here goes.

K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Well, the radio was working a few minutes ago. Now I cannot get it to key up.
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
use a bigger hammer
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I always have one in the truck.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I have checked. I cannot hear the repeater through the radio. It is fine through the live audio feed.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I will be glad when Cuba slides up out of view.
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
Let me fix that for you.....
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
HAHAHA
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Did you find the bigger hammer?
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
lol
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I do not think that guy was very smart.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Bigger hammer, but poorly utilized.
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
Aim looks dead on to me.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Though, the application of enough explosives, correctly placed, can fix almost any problem.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Just do not hit it with a bigger hammer. A detonator works better.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I guess a hammer is a detonator, but a regular detonator works better.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Okay. That one is gone, too.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Man, people are popping in and out constantly. Is there a problem with the system?
K7KBJ @kjuenke 14d
I popped in and out. My browser was messed up.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Several others have been, too.]
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Kilo Seven Kilo Kilo X-ray checking in from Winnemucca via NNPG chat.
JC @JC 14d
I'm working on organizing. Do you all think one 'box" should have the same stuff or each "box" should have a variety in case you have to grab and go?
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I do a modular system. I do have a couple of modules that have a fairly comple set of items. Most of the modules are specific for items.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
They are grouped in a couple of places along with totes and/or packs. I can throw in the modules I believe I will need and take off.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I do have the game cart, on which I load up to 700 pounds of gear for long jaunts, with most of it in totes.
JC @JC 14d
Oh modules, I hadn't even thought of that set up
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I am putting another fire/hospital bag that I can grab if there is a fire or I have to go to the hospital and stay for a while. If I do not take it with me someone can get it for me and bring it to me.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
Jerry, JC lives on the edge of Cascadia so she may have to run immediately. Does that make any difference in how you would pack?
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I have 1-day, 3-day, and 7-day food modules that I can put together for longer terms.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Yes. Definitely. For what she is facing, not only does she need a true grab and go kit so she can be out the door in less than one minute.
JC @JC 14d
I hope I never have to run immediately

K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
There should also be a couple of small packs that she can also grab on the way out for tsunami safety and one for earthquake safety. They each have special equipment that will be needed for those events, which are highly likely.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
Where she is, she will have to deal with a monsterous earthquake, then a tsunami and possibly volcanic events. What would you recommend she needs the most to get out.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Less likely is the need for volcanic activity kit. It would be good to have one, I would get the other two ready first, with the primary kit just as soon as possible.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
You cannot ride out a tsunami if you are in the flood zone. You can often ride out just an earthquake. To me that means the tsunami kit first after the regular evac kit.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
Do you have a kit list of stuff in the forum?
JC @JC 14d
Thankfully I'm out of the tsunami zone. My parent's taught me that much

K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Volcanoes, depending on time, her location in relation to not just the current known volcanoes, but for any that might pop up during a subsidence event.
JC @JC 14d
My biggest threat is an earthquake. If any of these volcanoes start acting up I'm headed to Idaho!
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I do not have my modules in the forum as they are still evolving some. However, due to the tectonic activity happening now I will get some of those up just as quickly as I can. I do have old lists, from 40 years ago that I need to clean up and modify for current circumstances and equipment availability.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Smart. The best way to survive something is to not be where it is happening.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
Cascadia is a subduction fault capable of 9.0+ magnitude quake with Mt, Rainier a few miles to the north. Mt. Lassen has been acting up with earthquakes under Lake Alamanor so ya'll may need a volcano kit yourselves.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Still, I always want some things. I am just too lazy to go looking for a meal or fuel or whatever.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I do have my basic one, but being where I am now I do need to update it, too.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
Aren't we all. I do like your advice that the best way to deal with a disaster is to get out of Dodge before.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
I have located everything for my flood kit after the move. Things are all over the place. Not to mention missing due to the theft. I do not even know what all I do still have, so it makes it difficult.
JC @JC 14d
I appreciate all the guidance you've given me!
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
My policy is that if I am physically safe at home, with nothing pending that could change that, I shelter in place. If there is even a slight risk of real danger then I immediately take off when that possibility becomes apparent.
JC @JC 14d
That's what I'm working towards!
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
Well I know that you have spent a lot of time putting together items as well as figuring out how to protect them. The have nots will really be looking to steal stuff when it hits the fan.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
No proplem. I will try to add some things to the forum here as quickly as I can. I have been meaning to but just have not been up to it.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
You better believe it. And I am not sure steal will be the correct term. I will be so much more violent and abusive than mere stealing.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
You take good care of yourself Jerry, you have so much to offer.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
Yeah it will just be outright murder and mayhem
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Any time there is anything specific you guys want to know, just ask. If I know it or can do it, I will.
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Yep.
JC @JC 14d
No rush, you're all good with all the stuff you constantly provide! I'm off to bed. I appreciate everyone to the max! Sleep well everyone!
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Well, I do think I will call it a night. I did laundry and dishes today and either alone just wipes me out. Then did some stuff at the storage room and finally got some groceries.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 14d
Thank you Jerry. I greatly appreciate that, I think we all need to hit the hay. Thanks again and goodnight,
K7KKX - Jerry D Young @K7KKX 14d
Good night, all.
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Ken, are you on tonight... If so, I'll come up wiht question for tonight. Also, I will ask for you for setup/update on our event. OK?
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Possible question #1 - This week those of us that will be at Dayton State Park will be testing our skills and gear. What skills do y ou consider most perishable...those that would deteriorate fastest without practice/updating.
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Hi Paul
K7IN - Paul @K7IN 7d
Hi Dave! Will you be at Dayton for the whole event?
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
I was delayed today...will be leaving for DAyton tomorrow morning.
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Ken...Possible 2nd question...What was it, or who was it that started you down the road toward becoming a prepper and being self-reliant?
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Paul...Ken won't be on the chat tonight. He will be on the net, but not on the chat.
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Hi Kristin
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Good evening Keith
Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d
Howdy
Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d

David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Mostly late in the day thunderstorms, but terrible winds on and off all the time.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d

Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d

David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Kristin, are you saying your radio isn't available tonight?
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Keith, I don't want to jink it, but it strange to not have California burning to the ground this year.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d
Give it time. Of course it has to find a place that is not already gone.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d
Everyone up here is holding our breaths. Have had a number of small fires, so far nothing of any size.
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
I hope no place near you.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d
So do I.
Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d
Eco nuts are calling for remasking for smoke. Funny thing though, the masks actually are useful against smoke,
KK7CON- Kristin @KK7CON 7d
Yes.. at work..
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Amazing when you follow the mask yes/no must must not story through Covid. And facts are seldom around the story
Idaho70 @Idaho70 7d
FActs?? We don't need no stinkin facts!
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
Amen!
KK7CON- Kristin @KK7CON 7d
I am bringing some dehydrated food to try this weekend.
David - K7DWW @k7dww 7d
OUtstanding!
KK7CON- Kristin @KK7CON 7d
