Pros and Cons of Solar and Wind Energy Emergency Communication is a very important part in keeping the community safe. One way to do to help keep communication is to build a self sustained repeater for ham radios. Ham radio is a shorter way of saying amerature radio operator. The name comes from the first amerature wireless station, the owners were named; Albert S. Hyman, Bob Almy, Poogie Murray. They called the radio station Hyman- Almy- Murray, or HAM. My father peaked my interest in ham radios when we started hunting because ham radios have the ability to use more power than just regular walkie talkies, and the more power the radio uses the farther the distance the radio wave can travel. I have been a ham radio operator for about a year now and ham radios are a good way to keep communication with other ham radio users when no cell phone service is available. There are beneficial factors when it comes to wind and solar energy, and there are also some non beneficial factors. For Solar some beneficial factors are; the cost is relatively inexpensive, and the amount of energy solar panels will produce. Some of the non beneficial factors are; the amount of space solar panels takes up, but solar panels can't produce energy when the sun isn't out. For wind Energy the beneficial factors are; easy to build, and wind turbines doesn't require maintenance that often. Some of the non beneficial factors are; the cost of the items to build the turbine, the turbine will cost more
