Re: [WISPA] 2.4Ghz gear needed
That article was pretty early on, so I doubt anyone had gotten to their location yet. From how I interpreted what was said, was the locality already had some kind of wireless communications system in place and fema disconnected their system and turned their on. When the feds show up, they take control and that's the way it is. George Tom DeReggi wrote: John S, I think the program was hosted by Stone Phyillips on ABC around 8:00. Not sure exactly. Like George said, it wasn't the first time I saw the footage, just the first time I caught the comment about the FEMA antenna. The coverage was about complaining what a horrible job FEMA was doing from a slow response perspective. Note: To make sure my last EMail was clear... What was reported was... The Parish's communications went down, then Parish head learned it was because FEMA disconnected the Parish's antenna without telling them, so FEMA could install their own new antenna for their own purposes, which was indicated by the big FEMA sticker on the antenna.

RE: [WISPA] 2.4Ghz gear needed
No it is different . It is for the inhabitants of the local Parrish's not the FEMA network. They had the right to cut off any and all services to get their emergency network up. It seems pretty convoluted in that respect but the basis was for emergency services on that. This is different. geared towards the people -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom DeReggi Sent: Monday, September 26, 2005 2:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] 2.4Ghz gear needed It would be interesting to know which companies received these contracts, and what enabled them to.

Re: [WISPA] 2.4Ghz gear needed
Allthough it opf course would be helpful, for us to donate cash and find manufacturer sponsors, I feel government should be stepping up to the plate and they are NOT. Its just as important that We as WISPs write our congressman and governament officials asking why FEMA is not stepping up to the plate to help fund these efforts.

Re: [WISPA] 2.4Ghz gear needed
Hello list, I am again in the position to ask direction for acquiring more gear to be installed in the Gulf towns on the Mississippi coast. I need Aps, CPE, Jumpers, enclosures, mounts, tape, mastic, tripods for roofs.etc. Do any of you know of a manufacturer that is willing to donate these goods? If you have a supplier hit them up and give me their name..etc It seems like I would have some funding by now, but I guess its the waiting game thing going on. Sooner or later FEMA is going to have to come across with the doe!
