[TNham] Emergency Bulletin

Mon, 8 Jul 2002 13:31:05 -0500

While I think this information is great, we need a better way to
distribute the information. Considering the Bulletin came out on July
5th and the condition could exist for up to 72 hours. Receiving this on
July 8th is a bit late.  Interesting that this is an ARRL Bulletin, and
I am a member of ARRL but didn't hear anything about it until now.
