In Episode 2 of the Prep Comms MURS Mini-Series, Caleb Nelson dives deep into what really determines your performance on MURS. Spoiler: it’s not power. It’s your antenna, your coax, your terrain—and how well you understand what you’re working with.

This isn’t theory. These are real-world setups from real users—from the hills of Pennsylvania to the silence of Utah. You’ll learn exactly what works and why, including gear recommendations that Caleb personally uses on his family farm and in mobile scenarios.

Topics Covered:

• Real listener feedback on MURS performance

• The truth about 2 watts and how far it can really go

• VHF vs. UHF performance in rural terrain

• Coax cable explained (RG8X vs LMR-400)

• Legal antenna height and why it matters

• Why MURS is not private—and why that’s still okay
