Has the ARRL been telling the truth all those years about amateur
involvement in "real emergency situations?" Or have they been
exaggerating somewhat?
Gosh, from all I see in here, radio amateurs are akin to "minutemen
of the air" ready at a moment's notice to come to the aid of their
country in time of need! [apparently their whole reason for becoming
radio amateurs in the first place!]
Remember, when real emergencies happen all the commercial
infrastructure fails! Only amateurs have the indestructible radios to
survive! [so I've been explained to by other minutemen of the air]
Field Day is supposed to be the "emergency training" isn't it?
I've been told that, too. ARRL has said it longer than me...
