[Dan Hensley]

http://www.arrl.org will bring you to a story about an amateur radio operator who was the determining factor in saving the life of a boater in distress. You'll have to scroll down a bit, then click on the link to see the story.

The story aired this evening on Chicago WGN channel 9, and they convienietly left out the hero. Leave it to the media to air the saved person, but not the hero. 

People are now and have always questioned the need for us, and today they got one more answer to their question.
