I can see now I am fighting with a mental case. Here is a suggestion "old friend" START a VHF NET. Get some stations with HF capabilities to link with the HF network. There you are....your now in the system. Don't know how to do it? Don't trust my advice? Check with ARRL.org. DOn't trust them either probably. EXACTLY what some firebrands did in this part of Alabama. They started their own V/Uhf system. And it is a fabulous success. Oh...is that bragging again? Dan/W4NTI old_friend doesn't want to go to the trouble to help, he just wants to whine and cry about others that do. He is part of the crowd we see that only complain about what is wrong in this disaster, but do nothing to help. |

This is from the Sunday Pensacola News Journal: Ham-radio operators assist in rescue fforts Tallahassee ham-radio operators guided emergency workers through daring helicopter rescue :, Friday of 1 ,500 patients and staff from two New Orleans hospitals besieged by darkness and gunfire. Urged by rapidly rising water 8 feet deep in places and the growing reality that New Orleans had become a drowning pool, the operators fashioned a satellite receptor atop an 8-story building in downtown Tallahassee. Three of them - Theo Titus, Gene Floyd and Bill Schmidt - boarded a helicopter in Tallahassee on Wednesday and headed for New Orleans. Atop the garage at Tulane University Hospital and Clinic, they set up a generator-powered .. ham radio with a satellite uplink. The men used that communication to direct pilots through the near-war zone as they evacuated decimated hospitals. "There were a lot of heroes in this operation," said operator Chuck Hall. Hall said the rescue was a small victory, but bigger obstacles remain. Hospitals have to be rebuilt. Patients have to get well, and New Orleans still faces months of recovery. "We had to overcome some small hurdles today, but the big hurdles are in front of us.". If THAT isn't in the thick of it, I really don't know WHAT you really want. I recall a thread recently where you insisted that Amateur Radio had no "real" part in emergency operations and that most such communications was handled withOUT the help of Amateur Radio. Yada Yada, Yada. Much will be done by MANY agencies and groups-even people lending backs and hands or a mere handkerchief to the effort. *Some* may be by Morse; much of it not. Some will handled by satellite and other data links as can be established like the gentlemen in the article. I am seeing PLENTY of articles on TV and radio about hams in the thick of the action--Even Larry King Live mentioned! The crux of your angst was not the Morse issue, but the viability of Amateur Radio itself as a vital part of our nation's communications infrastructure, which it is HAS been since the beginning. Nothing puts the lie to your ham-radio-is-not-vital-to-emergency-communications diatribe than this horrific tragedy. NO! It is NOT the onlyone--no one's saying it is--but it is certainly doing what it does best; serving the community and nation in anyway it can. And there are thousands staying out of the way until the phone rings, "Can YOU come and do......................."? Or relaying messages into and out of NO and other stricken area. MOST amateurs that respond, whether it be some heroic effort or merely letting a daughter know that her Daddy is safe via HF radio will do so without expecting or receiving so much as a quick "Thanks, man". They wouldn't have it any other way! ![]() J Jerry: What we have here are three individuals that: (1) two of them are either too dumb or too lazy to have every gotten a ham license, thus they are on the outside looking in, and they see what ham radio can do in assisting in emergencies and they can't be a part of it so it really chaps their butt, and (2) the other, who claims to be a ham is nothing more than a do-nothing baby, who just crys and whines about what others are doing because he is either too stupid or too lazy to do something himself. |

Gent bent It's morons like you who secretly -wanted- something this bad to happen just so you could have the opportunity to "step up to the plate". Yep, all those people are suffering and dying so -you- can feel good about being a ham -- you -should- be proud. You're statement is more than stupid. I know of no one, radio amateur or not, who wanted such a tragedy to take place. Get some perspective you sick expletive deleted. Wow! It is difficult to believe that one who thinks the way you do, could accept that it is you who needs the perspective. Dave K8MN The last time I saw anything like this was the rubble we left that used to be Cholon district of Saigon during TET. I still wake up seeing that. ......oh brother, another war vet. I must have met more people who claimed to have served in Viet-Nam than people who actually -did- serve there. And to compare my post to the TET offensive is even more sick than your wannabe-hero complex. And to think this moron thinks anyone actually wished for a disaster that has hit the Gulf Coast of the US is beyond stupid. He is braindead. It's hardly inconceivable. Just go to any field day and listen to how they talk. Those wannabe-hero hams practically wet their pants at the thought of a disaster and the opportunity to "show their stuff" and "step up to the plate". Just like you do, Dan. Well, thanks to all of you out there that know what is going on. I'm done dealing with this fool. My break is over, going back to the rig. Typical.

Just like you do, Dan. indeed I have heard on the repeater a few ham going on about the the fact they wish there was disatser traffic for the UP of michigan. I for one am glad our area is little affected, even gas supplies are not much affected for us(we get ours is barges and we have the fuel we will burn till about march aready sitting round) I am sorry of these folks gald that Ham radio can help out but sick the Hero Wanna bes Well, thanks to all of you out there that know what is going on.

I've participated in Field Day many times over the course of 40+ years, from several geographic locations and with a number of different groups. I have never heard anything like you've described from any participant. Dave K8MN |
