QUOTE FROM THE ARRL WEBSITE
Amateur Radio's Role Gets Favorable Mention in Post-Katrina Report NEWINGTON, CT, Feb 17, 2006--The Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES), the Military Affiliate Radio System (MARS) and the HF digital e-mail system Winlink 2000 all got positive mentions in a post-Katrina report from the US House of Representatives. US Rep Tom Davis (R-VA) chaired the panel. References to ARES, MARS and Winlink appear in "A Failure of Initiative"--the final report of the Select Bipartisan Committee to investigate the preparation for and response to Hurricane Katrina. "Like all levels of government," the 364-page report notes, the National Communication System (NCS), "was not able to address all aspects of the damage to the communications infrastructure of the Gulf States." "Volunteers at the Montgomery, Alabama, Red Cross volunteer marshaling center--Dave Hyatt, K1DAV of Torrington, and Dave Wilcox, K1DJW, of New Hartford. Sarratt spent more than a month processing Amateur Radio volunteers for deployment to the Gulf Coast. "MARS was cited for its role as part of the Shared Resources High Frequency Radio Program (SHARES), an emergency federal communication system put into play when other resources are unavailable. The report says that "within days" of Katrina's landfall, NCS called upon more than 430 SHARES stations across the US to, among other things, assist first responders conducting search-and-rescue missions by relaying information to government agencies, by relaying logistical and operational information among FEMA EOCs in Georgia, Mississippi and Louisiana, and by handling health-and-welfare messages between volunteer agencies in Georgia and the American Red Cross national headquarters. "Additionally, the NCS coordinated the frequencies used by the nearly 1000 Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) volunteers across the nation who served in the Katrina stricken area providing communications for government agencies, the Red Cross and The Salvation Army," the report continued. "Emergency communications were conducted not only by voice, but also by high-speed data transmissions using state-of-the art digital communications software known as Winlink." The report further noted, "In Mississippi, FEMA dispatched Amateur Radio operators to hospitals, evacuation centers, and county EOCs to send emergency messaging 24 hours per day. It further cited comments from Bay St Louis Mayor Edward A. "Eddie" Favre that Amateur Radio operators "were especially helpful in maintaining situational awareness and relaying Red Cross messages to and from the Hancock County (Mississippi) EOC." According to the report, radio amateurs at airports in Texas and Louisiana "tracked evacuees and notified families of their whereabouts," while the Red Cross "deployed Amateur Radio volunteers at its 250 shelters and feeding stations, principally in Mississippi, Alabama and Florida." The Salvation Army, the report pointed out, operates its own system of Amateur Radio volunteers known as SATERN (Salvation Army Team Emergency Radio Network). "During the Hurricane Katrina response and recovery effort, SATERN joined forces with the SHARES program and received over 48,000 requests for emergency communications assistance utilizing federal frequencies made available via the SHARES program," the report noted. "The extent of destruction and damage to the communications infrastructure and services caused by Katrina exceeded that of any other natural disaster experienced by the Gulf Coast states," the report concluded. "Simply put, Katrina's devastation overwhelmed government resources at all levels." "A Failure of Initiative" asserted that the loss of power and the failure at various levels of government "to adequately prepare for the ensuing and inevitable loss of communications" hindered the hurricane response "by compromising situational awareness and command and control operations." "Despite the devastation left by Katrina, this needn't have been the case," the report stressed. "Catastrophic disasters may have some unpredictable consequences, but losing power and the dependent communications systems after a hurricane should not be one of them." END QUOTE |

I've been trying to "read" the past two weeks going's-on here, and I'll be darned if I see anything that's "radio" from you. I wonder if you will premit any discusion of the subject Since you made it adversarial in only two sentences, I think the question belongs in YOUR lap, Mork, not mine. nothing viods the basic premise that TI and other have said for years What? TI? What's a viod? the over all Katrina reponse was in negitive numbers Not as far as Amateur Radio, MARS or SHARES goes it isn't, Mork. That's what the peice I quoted was addressing...Nothing else. the ARS response was beter by comparision a 2 or 3. and given the colapse in many of real governemtn and society likely could never have been beter than roughly a 5 But all the deetails show we could have done better...(SNIP) There's always "better". Even God tried to wipe the slate clean and try again. Why should mortals be any different? (UNSNIP)...but no discusiion of this is premitted Who said so? Nature placed the ARS where we basicaly had to look good relitively, we were playing laong the keystone cops, hell Fox News did a better job of helping Katrina victums than the offical response Somewhere in there was a "thought", but I wonder what it was....Work on that English composition, Mork! So far, there's not been one word of criticism for the response by ARES, MARS, SHARES, etc other than "why can't we got more guys like you".... Even CAP's deployment of ALE-enabled HF systems got gold stars. So other than refering to FEMA or the State of Louisiana agencies, just WHO were YOU talking about? The day was certainly carried by volunteers, that's for sure. Steve, K4YZ |

They were talking about the communications INFRASTRUCTURE! They were talking about cell towers, fiberoptic lines, Public Service repeaters, etc! ARES is part of the NCS, at least it says so in the stuff I reecently received from ARES trying recruit me into thier ranks That wasn't ion the context of the comments made. the quote was the NCS(including ARES) could not function at first due the lack infrastruture "infrastructure". You're looking stupid again, Morkie. You're not paying attention. personaly I disagree with the assement but it was certainly ade (personaly I think the failure of the NCS{including ARES} to function was more due to being unable to find officiails to talk comunicate with, but that is another matter) OK, Morkie...I TRIED to get you to pay attention: QUOTE: The National Communication System (NCS) is a confederation of federal agencies and departments established by the Presidential Memorandum of August 21,1963. The mission of the NCS is to insure that the most critical telecommunications needs of the Federal Government can be met in any possible emergency, ranging from a normal situation to national emergencies and international crisis including nuclear attack, while at the same time, achieving the most effective and economical fulfillment of the day-to-day telecommunications requirements. The Manager, NCS, develops plans, standards and procedures for the management of Federally owned and leased telecommunications assets during disasters and emergencies declared under the Disaster Relief Act of 1974 (Public Law --93-288). The NCS administers a joint restoration priority system with the FCC to assure that available telecommunications resources are used to meet the most critical requirements under all conditions. The NCS is also given primary responsibility for implementing Presidential Directive 53, National Security Telecommunications Policy, under the direction and guidance of the National Security Council. UNQUOTE Idiot! of course anyone that disagrees you call an idoit No, I call anyone who has their errors pointed out to them three times yet still insists on ignoring their error an idiot. The CITED REPORT refered to the FEDERAL National Communications System...NOT the "NCS" of Amateur Radio relevance. The AMATEUR RADIO "NCS" is NOT nor ever WAS responsible for "...address(ing) a aspects of the damage to the communications infrastructure of the Gulf States." My previous assertion of you being an idiot remains factually intact. Steve, K4YZ |
