If you can download the Zello app as a secondary means of communication should the cell towers fail. It uses Wi-Fi to make your phone function like a walkie-talkie and works across all smart phone platforms. It's free. Look in your phone's App Store or at https://zello.com/app If you do get it, please add me as a contact. My profile name is jonathandfrench and it has my picture associated with the profile.
