I have been watching the news I don't see any coverage indacating that
the ARs is preforming a vital service. It is providing the H&W traffic,
important but nothing life saving

cuting more hot air, with the same suggestion as before

Than it is the news coverage that has missed the boat. I have listened
(BTW first rule for an emergency net, listen, don't transmit, unless
your help is needed) to the SATERN net (14.265) and heard relays of
quite a number of life saving messages - e.g. someone at such and such
an address needs to be rescued. Sounds like life saving to me.

did you catch/record a city or such?

one of the reasons I keep asking and pressing is to help make sure we
as Hams know these things for the day when we will need them
