Your $35 Radio Could Cost You $100,000 in FCC Fines-Unless You Master These Techniques When Hurricane Harvey devastated Houston, emergency communicators with proper radio knowledge maintained communications for weeks while others sat helpless with dead equipment. The difference wasn't expensive gear-it was knowing how to transform budget Baofeng radios into professional-grade emergency tools. Most Baofeng users are unknowingly breaking federal law. The FCC doesn't care about good intentions when issuing fines for spurious emissions and equipment violations. Miami business owners discovered this reality with a $144,000 penalty for using Baofeng radios during hurricane response. Amateur radio expert Luca Peter Scott reveals techniques that emergency responders, preppers, and ham operators use to stay legal, stay connected, and stay alive when conventional communications fail. With 15+ years emergency communications experience, Scott transforms complex technical knowledge into actionable strategies.
