Re: ROFL said by markopoleo:No HAM was needed at ANY natural disaster since 1989 before you pull the "but HAM saves lives" card. What??!! Tell that to my brother who went down to the Mississippi and Alabama area after all the hurricanes and set up a communications and staging area with some of the HAM bigwigs down there and the Red Cross (they even had to build their own antenna on the spot to put on the roof of the building they were in). He was down there for a number of days helping out (by the way his callsign is KC8BGU). He received letters of commendation from both the American Red Cross and whatever club he belongs to (I think it's a national club).
HAM radio operators helped out tremendously during the aftermath.
