Some changes coming to PH. Hopefully for the better

(1/2) > >>

AD:
I am in the process of adding additional content to PH both on this WordPress home page and the forums.  You will see some temporary "features" like the missing photos from this home page and other features that will come and go as I learn WP and enable content.

Also, if there is a subject/topic that you would like to see discussed on here let me know.

If you are an experienced amateur radio operator and would like to write an article for the site, PM me and let me know.

In order to help pay for the site and generate some revenue, you will be seeing some "ads" on this page and in the forums.  I will have a Amazon affiliate account and when reviewing something like the new Baofeng BF-F8HP(of the F9 version) that I bought, I will report my findings here.  If that product is something you might like to look at, there will be a click-able link in the review that will take you to that product page on Amazon.

I used the BF-F8HP this weekend during a Chandler AZ CERT Training event with Chandler Fire while over 100 members of the City of Chandler Swim Teams passed out Drowning Prevention flyers. http://www.chandleraz.gov/newsrelease.aspx?N_UID=3032

This little radio was a big hit as I out preformed the old stand by Yaesu FT-60 that most of the guys were using.  I will tell you more about the BF-F8 when I get the article complete in about a week.

Hopefully these new articles and discussions will help generate more interest in the site and users generating more content.

So be patient as the changes come.

Well the first of the blog article is posted on the home page www.preparedham.com and covers dehydration while in the field.  This weekends CERT field Training event was the genesis for this article.  Stop by once in a while and check it out.

This article does have affiliate links in it but you are not obligated to click.

Let me know what you think.

I love the new format! The only criticism I have is that the link to the forums is pretty far down the page. Not a big deal for us regulars, but a first timer may not scroll that far and never even know there is a forum.

Starting looking good.

Have to agree.  A link to the forum might be better on the same line with the "home" link.
