This explains why the FEMA office in Chicago called me the other day to request activating members of my team to go south for hurricane relief This is so foolishly false I will only say that an old saying applies here, "keep your mouth shut and let people think you a fool or open it and remove all doubt". This started because I had bad things to say about Kenwood. The facts about our situation with Kenwood remain unchanged and people like this taking "cheap shots" has not changed things either. I have read statements from other folks on this site regarding other manufacturers of equipment and "WARNING" other readers to avoid the same pitfalls. I am who I am and I thought people would appreciate knowing what Kenwood did to our group. I have responded directly to Frank Thompson of San Jose, CA after he sent what you see below. Hopefully Frank will get his facts straight before he does something like this in the future. If anyone wants to contact me offline I will be happy to provide documentation of both the Kenwood situation and my credentials. Capt.

I have contacted F.E.M.A. to verify your credentials without any resolve. In other words they say you don't exist within the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an "Authorized" respresentative. Capt. Steve Hilton Communications Supervisor Emergency Support Services Federal Emergency Management Agency Cincinnati CERT Task Force [EMAIL PROTECTED] Should you continue in this fraud, you will be contacted from an "Authorized" agent of F.E.M.A. to resolve your issues.
