Overview

When cell towers fail, repeaters go silent, and the internet disappears - how do you still communicate across your region? Off-Grid HF & NVIS for Normal People is a practical, no-nonsense guide to regional radio communication without infrastructure. This book strips away hobby jargon and prepper fantasy and shows everyday people how HF radio and NVIS (Near-Vertical Incidence Skywave) actually work when everything else stops. This is not a ham radio brag book. It's a field guide for real-world failures - hurricanes, wildfires, winter storms, grid collapse, and long-duration outages. Inside, you'll learn: How NVIS lets you communicate hundreds of miles without towers, internet, or satellites Which HF bands actually matter (and when they work) Simple low antennas you can deploy anywhere - trees, fences, vehicles Portable HF kits that make sense for normal humans Power planning for radios when fuel, grid power, and solar are limited How EMPs and solar storms really affect radios (no hype, just physics) Voice vs digital vs Morse - what works when conditions are bad Message discipline, relays, and regional net operations How HF fills the gap when GMRS, VHF, mesh networks, and LoRa fail Step-by-step templates, checklists, and quick-reference inserts for emergencies Written in plain English and grounded in practical experience, this book is designed for: Off-grid and preparedness-minded households Emergency communicators and community organizers Amateur radio operators who want practical NVIS, not theory Anyone who wants regional communication without permission or infrastructure HF isn't about being fancy. It's about being reachable when reachability matters. This book teaches you how.
