In what sense? That its somwthing that nobody wants to learn about because its too technical?

That it will work when all other coms are shut down. And Ham Radio isn't complicated at all. It can be but that doesn't mean basic coms are. If you can use a phone you can use a Baofeng.
Im a ham of 30 years so its a little of a sore point with me. People like us will take a CCW class every few years to maintain a license to a basic human right but not bother to take a one time class and learn basic physics and radio propagation. You say ham radio to people and they look at you like you just crawled out of your mother's cellar.
I need to get into ham. I’m just rocking some vintage 1950-70s field phones and a couple miles of commo wire at the moment.
