"A little religious communication might not be a bad idea at this stage of the game. Now myself, I don't take any chances, I talk to Mohammed, Buddha, Mr. Jesus H. Christ Himself and any other religious honchos I can come up with." ~ Sgt. Maj. Hafner (R. Lee Ermey),,,,,,,Prayer, body armor, and a fully loaded weapon does it for me.

Purchased:

- two more 55 gallon water drums
- materials to converts my storage shed into a faraday cage

Why would you need to make a faraday cage?

I purchased copper wire mesh. I plan to partition off a small portion of the shed and wrap the partition frame with the mesh. The mesh will overlap to ensure continuous contact, run a ground form one corner of the cage using copper coated steel rod (4' section of 3/8" rod) and AWG# 4 copper wire.

If you don't have a lot of stuff to store you can use an old microwave. It is essentially a faraday cage.
