Too bad that is the only place you probably will see it. Hams already know
the capabilities and/or benefits of amateur radio.

Now, I see the "morning shows" are already showing coverage of the potential
storm, and gee, wouldn't ya think a story or interview on one of those shows
would have "some" impression." And of course if the average Joe (or
Josephine) ham was to call up CBS, NBC, ABC, etc. and try to get some time,
I am quite sure they wouldn't have much luck. BUT an organization
supposingly representing amateur radio, with alleged clout would have a
better chance of getting a story or interview in front of a much larger
public, such as these morning shows.

I'll just wait to read about Ham Radio Saving The Day on the ARRL news
