Introduction

Post by Scotty055 »

Hey preppers!

Been a prepper for well over 10 years but it's somthing I've done in isolation. Watching youtube videos and reading books and, of course, building a collection of superfluous torches!

In all seriousness though I've got a plan, a bag and the lowest teir of maslows heirachy covered. But things have gotten so uncertain recently that I've decided to join a few forums to benefit from the communities collective knowlage and hopefully iffer some in return.

My background is in secure comms and have been teaching cyber security for the past 10 years. I've been working on a handheld GPS navigation tool which will make my old prepper smartphone redundant and I'd love to get some feedback on the best way to improve it.

If anyone has any cyber security or tech related prepper questions I'm more than happy to help my fellow preppers. My current project is below for interest.

Hello and welcome to the Forum. :)
Two is one and one is none, but three is even better.

Understandable but you're missing out on seeing the best darn GPS navigator I can come up with!

Hoping to be more active once I finish up with my currnet contracts so you'll probably catch me in foraging or bushcraft topics, personal weak spots for myself.
