Is there a place for 2-way radios in case SHTF?
If you think so, what would they be used for?
Are you talking about hand held units that can be purchased at Walmart and used with no license?
Or are you talking about handhelds that require either a GMRS or Ham license to operate or a mobile or even base station?
What distance do you want to communicate?
Who are you planning on communicating with - the person on the other side of the communications will need a compatible radio with similar frequency bands, etc.
I can see where a group of people who had banned together and in relatively close proximity could make use of handhelds.
But what else?
