Yup - it's real - and nationwide. I get to sit in the local
hospital's EOC passing traffic on ham channels for two -

two shifts during this one. They won't even let me see the

Phil, why do you have to pull a double-shift?

I would guess that you have to pull two shifts because there are
not
enough amateur volunteers.

I guess that presupposes that Phil DOESN'T like volunteering for
those shifts and is somehow being FORCED to do so...

Steve, K4YZ

I'm just trying to see how these volunteers fit into County EMA, Red
Cross, etc., needs.
