> From the CQ / WorldRadio Online Newsroom:
>
> All radio  amateurs are requested to keep 7045 kHz and 3720 kHz clear
> for possible  emergency traffic related to today's major earthquake in
> Haiti.
>
> International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) Region II Area C  Emergency
> Coordinator Arnie Coro, CO2KK, reports that as of 0245 UTC on  January
> 13, nothing had been heard from radio amateurs in Haiti, but that  the
> above frequencies were being kept active in case any Haitian hams
> manage to get on the air, and in case of other related events in
> surrounding areas, including aftershocks and a possible  tsunami.
>
> The following is from an e-mail from CO2KK:
>
> A few  minutes after the earthquake was felt in eastern Cuba's cities,
> the Cuban  Federation of Radio Amateurs Emergency Net was activated,
> with net control  stations CO8WM and CO8RP located in the city of
> Santiago de Cuba, and in  permanent contact with the National
> Seismology Center of Cuba located in  that city.
>
> Stations in the city of Baracoa, in Guantanamo province,  were also
> activated immediately as the earth movements were felt even  stronger
> there, due to its proximity to Haiti. CO8AZ and CO8AW went on the  air
> immediately , with CM8WAL following.  At the early phase of the
> emergency, the population of the city of Baracoa was evacuated far
> away from the coast, as there was a primary alert of a possible
> tsunami event or of a heavy wave trains sequence impacting the coast
> line at the city's sea wall ...
>
> Baracoa could not contact Santiago  de Cuba stations on 40 meters due
> to long skip after 5 PM local time, so  several stations in western
> Cuba and one in the US State of Florida  provided relays. CO2KK, as
> IARU Region II Area C Emergency Coordinator,  helped to organize the
> nets , on 7045 kHz and also on 3720 kHz, while  local nets in Santiago
> de Cuba and Baracoa operated on 2 meters.
>
> As  late as 9,45 PM local time 0245 UTC we have not been able to
> contact any  amateur or  emergency services stations in Haiti.
>
> Amateurs from  the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Venezuela were
> monitoring the 40  meter band frequency, that I notified to the IARU
> Region II executive  Ramon Santoyo XE1KK as in use for the emergency,
> requesting that 7045 kHz  be kept as clear as possible ...
>
> We are still keeping watch on 7045 kHz  hoping that someone in Haiti
> may have access to a transceiver and at least  a car battery to run it.
>
> All information that has so far come from the  Cuban seismologists
> tell us of a very intense earthquake, and also of the  possibility of
> other events following.
>
> Following the advice of the  geophysicists, we are keeping the 7045
> and 3720 kiloHertz frequencies  active until further notice
