Introduce Yourself

Greetings and salutations!
Inadvertently discovered I was a Prepper a few years back….
I just thought it was a good idea to have a few extras of things that might be needed.
Field Day was a great start to have things handy just in case. Ham for 40+ yrs.
Solar power was easy for me as a one time TVRO satellite design team member…
Helped to put first of the new switching power supplies into space long ago.
Scouting and SAR membership gave me another angle into having what you need when you need it.
Reloading is a newer hobby… Almost more fun that target shooting… Almost…
Looking forward to cruising through the archives and forums to discover more tips and ideas!
That’s me in Cliff note form…
73’s
Chuck

Hello everyone,

This is a shout out for anyone in Philadelphia, Mississippi!

We are a British documentary crew. We are making a one hour road trip documentary across America for Channel 4, the UK’s most popular national station.

Our presenter, Gary is meeting and spending time with people in a number of states, from all walks of life. He’s been enjoying American culture and food and hearing about folk’s predictions and their hopes for a new America, now their president elect is in power.

We will be filming in Philadelphia, Mississippi on Tuesday 1st August.

We’re including a whole range of predictions and we’re interested in people who think if things don’t play out right, there will be a race war.

Maybe you’re a family in the area who is pepping for an eventuality like this and hoping for the best?

I’m open to your suggestions too and would welcome your thoughts from people in the area.

Any input and direction on this would be helpful.

Huge thanks for your time everybody and best wishes,

Kate

Welcome from SE Arizona, Pigboat65! A good place to start is the “Getting Started–the Basics” section, and read through some of the posts there. Also, look over the different sections, and find one that piques your interest. There is a LOT of information here, so don’t let it overwhelm you. If you have questions, ASK! there are plenty of experienced folk on here who would be glad to help.

Thank you and welcome aboard!

First time ever to use a forum. Not quite sure how to proceed. A learning curve for sure, but that’s how we grow isn’t it? Been researching a lot and found APN through Armed Squirrel Project. After reading several articles on the website I concluded this is the location to get practical, common sense information. Had to wade through a lot of minutiae to find this site.
I live in the Arkansas delta so will be checking for possible future friends in the area. Hopefully, at some point in the future I’ll be able to contribute something of worth. God’s Blessing to all.

Hello from a couple hours south! Hope you are find others close to you and that you spend time looking over the knowledge gathered here, its substantial. There was a group that PeachonEarth ran to the east of you. I haven’t heard from her in a while, any other arkies know if the ozark mtn preppers are still active?

Welcome from SE Arizona! We used to live in the San Angelo area 20+ years ago. Still miss it, but our area is VERY close, climate and soil-wise. (In other words, CALICHE!)

Hello…My wife and I live in the Dallas area but have acreage about 15 miles East of Leslie on Hwy 66 that we are currently working on and are planning to retire to in the next few years…if not sooner. We’re looking for other like-minded people in the area to learn from.
