Empty file? Perhaps you should update your default media player. It was an
interesting video of a report of amateur radio directly being responsible
for rescuing folks trapped on a rooftop in New Orleans.

If you haven't updated your media player, perhaps you should check if you
have installed the latest critical patches to your operating system too. If
you don't, this can leave you open to having your computer hijacked.

BTW, Dan, the naysayers have a religious pitch to their theme. You won't
convince them. Hey, a handheld CB should work just fine. Of course, those
hops in the video were a bit more than a few miles ... more than hundreds of
miles, for that matter

I also noted that the operator in the video seemed well beyond his twenties
(or thirties or forties for that matter). I thought the oldsters were
worthless too )

I can understand why some folks left the newsgroup on what appears to be at
least a semi-permanent basis (Ed Hare comes to mind).

With luck, our old friend may upgrade his player (maybe he needs a newer
browser as well). I will admit, however, that running 7,000 kbps on DSL
makes this job really quick and easy for me

A video of a newscast. You need some patience as it takes a bit of time to
come up.

But according to lennieboy and the SeeBee King frankieboy, and
a_really_stupid_oldwhateverheis, that would be just something routine,
nothing vital.

So much for the 248 IQ, eh, Markie...?!?!

Steve, K4YZ

He forgot the negative sign in front of that 248.
