AMATEUR DONATIONS NEEDED
Long Island Mobile Amateur Radio Club (LIMARC), is looking for DONATIONS of
"Ham" gear, like triband beams, rigs, and towers, to be used for our Emergency Communication Stations, and Field Day. If you have any old equipment that you're not using anymore, and would like to donate it to our cause, we will make sure that you get a nice letter, being that we have 503 c(3) status with the I.R.S. ,for a tax deduction, from our club. We really need your help, so please try to assist us in any way that you can. Thanks in advance |
Hello,
Oh yes, pull the other one. If anyone wants to send me a new shack I'll promise to send a post card. Emergency work should be left to professionals paid to do the job. They can quite often do without people getting under their feet and in the way! There is an amateur/CB group in the UK that causes a bit of annoyance like that, people must just like dressing up as pretend police men. The public take absolutely no notice, and amateurs/CBers don't either. "N2ION" wrote in message ...

Some of us out here in the real world belong to volunteer groups that have memoranda of understanding with our served organizations and we practice and drill with them regularly. This is especially true here in North America where there are areas that are often hit with extremely severe weather. Some of us are even those "paid professionals". In fact, most of the fire protection in the US is provided by volunteers. Unpaid professionals, as it were. Paid professional fire departments are usually only found in large cities and densely populated suburban areas. My first-year composition professor's advice rings especially true here - "write what you know". Russ |

There is an amateur/CB group in the UK that causes a bit of annoyance like that, people must just like dressing up as pretend police men. The public take absolutely no notice, and amateurs/CBers don't either. I'm sorry your situation is so poor over there. Believe me, it doesn't have to be that way. It's possible to train the amateur operators properly (so they know how to provide useful communications, and how _not_ to get in the way and make things worse), and set up official well-understood arrangements by which amateurs can provide useful-and-sometimes-critical backup communications. This role as emergency communicators is, in fact, a big part of the legal justification for amateur radio as written into U.S. law. In my own city, the amateur emergency-communication group is affiliated with the city fire department - most of us are sworn in as volunteers with the FD, and have had background checks run and photo IDs issued. The ARES/RACES radio shack is in the Police & Fire administration building, we've got perhaps a half-dozen antennas up on their towers, the city provides a substantial budget for the purchase and upkeep of amateur radios and the necessary equipment and antennas, we have amateur-radio antennas pre-staged on all of the city fire stations and at the hospitals, and have a good working relationship with the city emergency services manager. We run drills every quarter, have training classes once a month, and encourage amateurs to become involved with their community CERT groups (for which the city provides free emergency-response training classes). A lot of other cities do as much, or more. In an emergency (e.g. earthquake, a big issue around here!) it's very likely that the number of trained amateur-radio communicators our group can activate will exceed the total number of police officers and firemen. We might even double their number - a lot of the public safety officers live an hour's drive or more outside the city and may not be able to get to work for _days_ after an earthquake. I can't say that I particularly care for the monthly "please send us your equipment" capital-letters boilerplate posting you're responding to... but the poster's motives and justifications are not as suspect as you seem to feel, I think. -- Dave Platt AE6EO Hosting the Jade Warrior home page: http://www.radagast.org/jade-warrior I do _not_ wish to receive unsolicited commercial email, and I will boycott any company which has the gall to send me such ads! |
N2ION, How many members in your club? Any of them contribute gear? Time? Can you think of a good way to prove to me that you are ligitimate, not another scam? 'Doc |

The public take absolutely no notice, and amateurs/CBers don't either. In the US the hams are not doing the actual emergency work. We are used to provide communications for the services. Without power or the ability of some services to communicate with others or long range communications , the 'professional services' tend to need help in communicating. As someone else pointed out , in many areas of the country the volunteers are all we have for fire protection and emergency medical service and transportation. I live in a rural area and appreciate the ones that provide this service. It may or may not be as good as a paid service but it is all I have . |
It's a bit different in the US. Amateur emergency work is well coordinated
with the authorities and is appreciated by them. "Ian" wrote in message ... Hello, Oh yes, pull the other one. If anyone wants to send me a new shack I'll promise to send a post card.

As I remember, crime in the US is down 35% while crime in the UK is up 35%. Canada and Australia were also mentioned as having increasing crime rates along with their increasingly restrictive gun laws. Well, I'd be extremely skeptical about this type of "statistics". For one, I am sure they were not comparing the same periods, and there are numerous tricks available for anyone who is attempting to prove anything with statistical figures. Take, for example, the US 35% reduction in crime rate. It is more than likely that this figure was achieved by comparing the crime rate from the peak of a recession to its bottom. The US crime rate always faithfully follows the economy - employed people don't have to resort to crime. No connection to the CCW whatsoever. What about the "increasing crime rate" in the UK or Canada? CCW has never been legal in these countries to begin with, yet both countries have the crime rate ten times lower than the US. I bet the mag never raised that issue. Even in the US, the highest crime rates are the states that have the strictest gun laws. If you were a criminal, would you rather break into a house in New York City or Dallas? That's not how it works. A criminal in Dallas doesn't wake up one day and decide to break into a house, following up with a visit to the local library to do research on where he's less likely to get shot, then catching a bus to Big Apple. Also, the crime rate - gun law strictness comparison is a common post hoc fallacy. Is it possible that the relationship is inverse: because those states have the highest crime rates, they instituted the strictest gun laws? While I was living near Phoenix, "The Phoenix Sun" reported that an attempted robbery using a knife at a local Circle-K was foiled by an ordinary customer who was carrying a concealed weapon. It happens. However, this type of testimonial evidence proves little. I'm not sure that as a neutral bystander I'd like to be in the middle of a shoot-out between the criminals and armed civilians. Even the police makes numerous mistakes in these types of situations, and we are to believe that any Joe Blow is capable of handling a situation where even the cops call for backup first. "First Freedom" magazine carries about ten similar reports per month where the good guys' guns foil the bad guy's violent crimes. I'm sure they do. If I were the editor of a magazine pandering to the gun owners, I'd do the same, while completely ignoring the negative aspects. But apparently that is not newsworthy enough for the liberal newspapers. "Liberal", as usual being defined as anything a person calling himself a conservative hates in a given moment? A friendly reminder: fat-ass hypocrite AM talk show drug addicts don't get to define liberalism and liberals, especially not with their hate propaganda. 73 ...
