 Story from QRZ...
-Bill W2CQ

In 1955, The Phil-Mont Mobile Radio Club, an association of mobile amateur
radio operators, provided emergency communications during the devastating
flood of August, 1955 along the Delaware River and in the Pocono Mountains
following Hurricane Diane, the sixth costliest U.S. hurricane of the 20th
century...fifty years before Hurricane Katrina.

In 1959, the club produced the short film "Every Single Minute" to explain
amateur radio, and especially mobile communications as practiced by the
club.

(The main film begins after a three minute interview with Jim Spencer, W3BBB
(SK), produced by a local cable channel many years later. The entire film
runs about 19 minutes.)
