    ^ you doing the "TANK TRADER" thing to get them filled? Around here Costco is less than 1/2 price of the trade programs. I just use the trader sleeves to swap out old tanks for new ones.

    I picked up 300# of oats for $30. The catch is it is not 'human grade' which means I have to pick through it for impurities (other seeds, pebbles, etc) I use most of it for deer feed, but will keep a few pails worth for myself

    What have you done to prep this week?

    FCC amateur radio license - General class - now have several radios (base stations HF/VHF and 2m/10m).

    One long distance HF antenna (covering 80m-10m) & building one VHF antenna (covering 2m) for local contact.

    Mobile (2m) radio and a mobile/portal 10m do not yet have antennas.

    That is in addition to food, water, ammo & home defense tools.
