K DeStefano - Alton, IL
I am from Diamondhead, MS. I evacuated with my 3 children to my parents
home in Alton, IL. I have a finace and his family down there in
Diamondhead that rode out the storm. They need help with supplies. They
barely made it due to the water coming in the house and they had to flee
to the second floor. There are two elderly people with them and 4
teenage kid's and a5 other adults. Please let me know how I would have
access to a ham radio operator from here to Miss. my phone in Illinois
is 618-466-1392



Notice she didn't ask how to have access to a cb operator. Smart lady,
knew that would be a waste of time.

Hi JJ.

You must have been abused by a CBer more than once. You can hardly post
with out referencing CB.

What's your call?
