There’s one place I know I can always turn to for reliable, no BS guide books for essential warfighting tools, and that is Vigilant Security Systems. Their weapon handbooks have been indispensable. And now, they’ve taken on the popular Baofeng Radio.
This handbook is perfect for beginners, and a handy reference for those who haven’t picked the radio up in a while.
Written by my friend Erik Lawrence, he’s an old school 18E from back when you had to know Morse Code and lived by HF.
It covers licensing, CHIRP programming, repeaters, field antennas, prowords, PACE planning and more.

And if you don’t have a couple of these radios lying around, pick some up. They’re inexpensive and critical for when traditional comms go down.
