My amateur radio friends used to sound paranoid when they talked about how it might be the last form of communication in an emergency. After all, I'd seen how overbuilt and reliable the PSTN was.

Now I wonder if maybe it's time to get licensed.

In a true emergency, I don't know that it matters whether or not you're licensed.

I agree though that getting licensed might be useful for knowing how to use it.
