To all whom it may concern, Michael is right here, there are lots of different efforts being started and there seems to be a willingness to combine these efforts into one strong one. My advice is that we reply to all or begin a mailing list that all interested parties can subscribe too. I am willing to start this list quickly if that is what we should decide.
Michael, it would help if you could share the list of volunteeers, equipment and your plan that you were writing to the FCC and FEMA. This will allow others to expound on it and provide advice to do things that were not thought of before. With all of us included, the amount of "contacts" that we can call upon for assistance will be multiplied substantially. We are all busy people and with the holiday weekend, email responses have been few so far. I think that once a plan is put in place, a region or area is defined and tasks are layed out with descriptions of specific jobs, that many more people will volunteer. Until that point, it will be tough to get commitment to the unknown. I have several messenger programs live most of the time, feel free to add me to your list.

WISPA, Part-15 and many others will be working toward the common goals of helping bring a combined WISP effort for helping with re-establishing communications in the effected gulf areas. If any of you want to help please go to the www.wispa.org website and click on the links from Part-15 to the places to donate your time, equipment or money to the combined effort. You can also send money to the WISPA account through [EMAIL PROTECTED] and MAKE SURE you put Katrina Disaster Relief in the subject line to insure funds raised will go directly to the relief effort.

You guys could really help in a lot of ways. So if you don't mind, I start the thought process of sharing the load here a bit. No fences to bend as far as I'm concerned buddy. Don't worry about crap like dude. Let me think of a good way to have a conference call of some form of communication established for some of this. The biggest problem I have right now is time. We're under the gun on a lot of things. My second headache is we all need better focus. Too many people out there doing things on their own and it surely make things worse for the whole although a very few may see slight benefit. Let me gather some thoughts and setup some form of meeting (voice or IRC) Later and thanks John Michael ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Scrivner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, September 03, 2005 9:50 AM Subject: Disaster Relief > Michael, > Good job on getting us organized for relief efforts.
