In this episode of the Acceptable Accuracy Podcast, hosts Philip and Tyler sit down with Andrew from NavComm to dive into the world of radio communications. They discuss essential radio etiquette, the capabilities of digital radios beyond traditional analog, and whether data can be transmitted over radio frequencies. Andrew breaks down encryption—who can listen in, how to obscure transmissions without encryption, and what licenses, if any, grant encryption access. The conversation also touches on whether you can be triangulated, what changes in a state of emergency, and how to keep radios operational in a grid-down scenario, including long-range communication without repeaters. If you're looking to improve your comms game, this episode is packed with insight and additional resources!
