Dan, while you're at it, would you mind telling Mark Morgan to refrain from making obscene comments and blowing into the mike over top of the SATERN Net and the Hurricane Watch Network?

We want people to get help and we want to use ham radio to deliver the help. We don't want the public to know how many idiots are out there (like Mark and Karol) who want to ruin it for everyone.

Speaking of SATERN I heard Mike Guernsey, KZ8O running the SATERN Net today. Say what you want about Mikey but he comes through when the going gets tough!

tom,

If your sure that is him, drop me a e-mail. Get it from QRZ

Yeah Mike has some good points. He certainly has a big signal. I am also a SATERN member. However
I haven't chimmed in. They seem to
have it under control, as usual.
