TBH, it wasn’t to do with the look or feel. I realise now after the advice through the comments and more research that its HAM we’d need to go with if we went ahead. Atm we’ve just set up a series of what to do if pre-defined processes/responses to certain situations.
Thanks

Keep calm & carry on PREPPING

Hi there, well HF (high frequency) would do the job however the size of the radio maybe not what your after. DMR (digital mobile radio) maybe exactly what you need! Assuming your a HAM

Surely if you are to rely on phone signals, satellites etc etc it kind of voids the need for radio, just use your mobile and call people.
