Today it’s time for the expert council show. To ask a question for a show like this, just send an email to me at jack at thesurvivalpodcast.com with “TSPC Expert” in the subject line.
Today on The Survival Podcast, the expert council answers questions on insulation, nutrition, ham radio, building ponds, homeschooling, solutions to the big problems and more.
In the body of your email first tell me the council member your question is for. Second ask your question concisely in one to two sentences maximum. Third any and all details after that. This is the formula to give you the best chance of getting on the air.
I do what I can to get as many of your questions as possible on the air but can’t always get to all of them. Our council is made of a wide variety of experts in everything from the tactical to the practical and everything in between.

Many thanks to John Pugliano for great suggestions in his answer to my ham radio question. I will be considering them very closely.
In particular, he suggested I work with the end in mind, i.e., if i am going to pursue higher ham radio licenses in the future, then my equipment selections should perhaps reflect that goal. Indeed, I plan to go at least as far as the General class to get greater access to the shortwave bands, so going with more of a multi-band radio is well worth considering.
Also, I really liked his idea about powering the rig in the base station configuration from a vehicle battery on trickle charger. Not only does this keep the system up during a power outage, but facilitates relocation for field ops or a bugout situation.
Again, great suggestions and many thanks.
