By the time something hits the news, social media, or even text alerts—it’s already happened.
And even when information is available, it’s often filtered, delayed, or incomplete—leaving you to sort out what’s actually going on.
When networks go down, get overloaded, or become unreliable…most people are left guessing.
In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to use modern radio tools to pick up signals happening all around you—and turn that raw information into real awareness.
This isn’t about theory.This is about knowing what’s going on while it’s happening.
