I agree that a wireless feed is not appropriate under normal situations but that's not what we're talking about here. I would say using a wireless feed to connect video down there (especially since all other communications are down) would be a very powerful tool to tell the story of what is happening and what you guys and our industry can offer.

Not appropriate for an FCC presentation. Come on, guys. The real issue is "what" is said, not "who" is saying it. What you need to do is to have WISPA leadership collaborate with P-15 leadership to come to mutual agreement on "what" is presented. That will suit everyone's needs. But beware: Do not settle for simply "providing material" as a substitute. Submitting material to another group to use or not use as they see fit will not represent your interests, guaranteed. What's called for is a collaboration and sign-off on what is presented. It doesn't have to be face-to-face ... people remotely email revisions back & forth on an every day, hour, or even minute basis in collaborative construction. This can work, only if there's someone in your group willing to collaborate to make it happen (and both parties are willing to see that it's accomplished). The issue of "who" does the presentation may be set in stone, but if both parties are willing to agree that "what" is presented should be agreeable to both, it can happen.

Thoughts? > Scriv > I agree that Matt would do well if he could find someone to talk to. And he would be in the top of the list of people I would want to go to Washington and represent us. However, Marlon, if he has the time, has experience of "roaming the halls of the FCC" looking for someone to talk to. Maybe Marlon would be a better choice in this instance? WISPA hasn't been formally invited to talk to the FCC people, so the person that goes will need to cold call, which might be difficult to do. I think this is the perfect time to talk to Washington, and make sure or reinforce that it was WISPA quick actions that got phone, broadband, and computers into the hands of the displaced. Mac Dearman and WISPA were "First Responders" We need to make sure that we get this credit right away. As time passes on, a lot will be forgotten and it will be much harder to get the type of exposure we now deserve. It would also be good to sometime in the future have a special trip to Washington for the member wisps of wispa who were effected and those who volunteered the time and effort to be quick responders. Guys like Mac need to be recognized for their quick actions, especially in light of how slow it took the government to respond. Just my thoughts.
