What do you guys do on the radios?

We gossip.
Quoted for truth
My FIL has been heavily into HAM stuff for decades and every night he gets on to what he calls the General Hospital Net with his buddies (they are all old guys in their mid to late 70’s that live in small towns in the sticks of AL) and they gossip about everything.
 
On this side of the mountain we mostly talk about all the crazy Las Vegas folks and how to keep them out of the Pahrump valley while still letting their money in.
We duzunt want their DNA cluttering up our one DNA gene pool over tuh here yuh seeze.
Might make our great great great grand chillins look nermal if'n wheeze was tuh allow the water'n down of our'n yu-neek DNA.
At least that's the way Coup and a few others here view we Pahrumpoids.
Soon as we get our starship repaired, we will depart this rock and you hoomons can continue in your quest to annihilate one another.

Beyond that, we mostly use 2meter, 70 CM and GMRS repeaters here in town to communicate when the phones are out, which is rather frequently due to drunk drivers and idiots with backhoes.

We also hold weekly training and disaster communication practice nets so we are ready when bad things happen.

Additionally, many of us also participate daily or weekly in HF nets for those same reasons , disaster preparedness.

Soon as a full time Amargosa Valley resident, we'll have to discuss how to keep those "crazies" in the Pahrump Valley out of the Amargosa Valley!! LOL

Oh, another Wit-Sec relocatee heard from! And he thinks we Pahrumpalopes are crazy!

Wait until he meets his Amarogsoid neighbors! We'll seem plenty nermal to him after that!

And I'll bet you think we are gonna let you come into our valley to shop, or for Drs., or to pass through to go to Vegas, don'tcha? Well, we will, after you pay the shopping and toll fees! :ROFLMAO:o_O

Be sure to get your Amateur radio license after you get settled over there, the phones tend to go out frequently, but there are a number of repeaters in Amargosa Valley and Pahrump that can be hit from either valley, and are generally monitored 24x7 if you need help and the phone is out.
 
Wait what? I love Pahrump. All those old retired military, police, CIA, FBI. Post Office, GSA, NSA, gubmint people out there. Nice folks.
Could use more sheriff's out there to control the crazy Vegas hooligans.
 
If you'd stop coming to Pahrump , Coup, we wouldn't need more deputies! You're the only Las Vegas Hooligan who keeps managing to get past our anti hooligan devices on the road here.
Maybe we need to up the amount of RDX in those things, see if that stops him! o_O:ROFLMAO:
