everything changed.

 i thought i was going to live
there for the rest of my life... but when
conditions changed, it felt like the end
of my life might be sooner than i'd
expected.  :)  i would've left sooner if
i'd understood the rf situation from the
beginning.  

as for testing a place... i'd test it several
different times of the day and night and
also over the course of a week...  
weekdays might be different than
weekends, for instance... nights different
than days.  just stay open and receptive
and flexible and don't plant yourself
forever in a material world that has a
factor of change built in.  

I didn't think consciously to buy a trailer for the reason you state, but really in the back of my mind lurks just that. You never know what horrid thing they have in store next and want to be able to pick up my wheels and go.  Looking to be in one place, but have options always open. The balance of a safe place is too fragile and one thing can tip it. Even WV if they loose the telescope and the president signs the military base out of there. He will if it interferes w/ the utility wanting to put in meters. Then a more unrealistic side of the coin. If people saw the light and the companies went analog again, I would probably want to move to LA or another Southern state-even then good to have a truck and pull up wheels should another Katrina turn up on the horizon.

Before I knew I was ES I had thought about an RV so I could live there again and have a way to flee the storms in my home. No more NOLA is wifi death and the rest the state is smart meters, except for one place "Jefferson Davis Parish".  No cheap homes in that zone and no rentals-but they are keeping the analogs. Places like AZ, CA for example have more understanding and tolerence for ES.  The south does not.  Something to consider too.
