of radio ham volunteers from the Dominican Republic visited
Port-au-Prince to install VHF repeaters, only to be fired upon as they
left the Dominican embassy

members of the party were hit, one severely. ARRL is sending equipment
<http://www.arrl.org/news/stories/2010/01/22/11304/>, and there is
confusion as unfamiliar operators in government agencies join in on ham
frequencies <http://www.arrl.org/news/stories/2010/01/22/11303/>."/
