Hams who show up "spontaneously", during an emergency, saying "I have
a radio and I want to help"... well, most likely they'll be treated
like any other volunteer of unknown capabilities and reliability.
They'll be sent down the street to the "convergent volunteer" center
for classification and possible assignment, just like any other
helpful citizen who showed up and (e.g.) offered to fill sand-bags
during a flood. If we don't know them, we can't depend on them in a
pinch.
That's how we look at it here. Our ARES/RACES team is set up with a
"Resource Net" frequency. We send then there. If they show up in
person, they can't get into the radio room anyhow.
The hospital is a little more direct - "drop-ins" get assigned to the
"Labor Pool" which supplies "helping hands" - but not radio people. We
have exclusive control over that, and have no time to teach them what
channels we use for what and how to pass specific traffic - the NTS
net it is not. We can do that because we don't deploy operators in
the field.
