Health and Welfare traffic is lower priority but it's still important
for people to know that their friends/relatives are okay and they know
he's okay too. Then they can attend to matters at hand with a clearer
head. Ham radio offloads H&W from police/govt/mil comm links so they
have enough bandwidth to handle the high priority stuff.
Sure H&W is of less importance. Saving lives is the highest priority. But
you know something? It sure made me feel good when I delivered those
messages from the disaster area. That is worth all the BS I read in here.
thank you for making my point so well Dan
Hams don't look with much real objectivity on their role in disasters
