Radio Communication

I was wondering does anyone have like communicators or two-way radios in Landels? Are they even possible/allowed to make?

The beautiful thing about the radios is that it's honestly just a case of switching some wires. I tested it myself with my brother in law, and it does work. The broadcasting will only work on one specific frequency (which one, I don't know) and both radios need to be tuned to it. As for how you specify sending/receiving, it's a matter of futzing with those wires that were switched. You disconnect one wire to receive, connect it to send. But it's pretty easy to set that up with a really simple switch made out of anything that'll...slip down into the radio and manipulate a thin wire. And you talk into the speaker.

(Yeah, I don't know the technical terms off hand, the BIL did all the explaining and actual converting of our thrift store radios, and all my notes died with my computer.)

And it really is easier to just...gloss over all the little details of it, but it is definitely real-world feasible.
