No, this is for big time SHTF only. But you may strike lucky.
Also check out Raynet.

Only 2 frequencies to watch if SHTF, both HF

27.555.00 Mhz, am usb
And
14.215.00 Mhz, am, usb

Yes you can watch the ones listed above, but one thing comes into play with them. Which is range,

Leo

Sounds like you need one of the following

Leo

If Lifesaver bottles produce "Clinically Pure Water" - would you use the water as an emergency Intra -Venous fluid? Anyone untrained at giving an I/V post SHTF, would at best, be madness. But saying that I, can't see any problem giving water via rectal hydration out of one of them product...
