General Info about Ham Volunteers
The World Wide Web is filled with web sites dealing
with public service and emergency communication. Many sites
have "links" pages which list other emergency communication
sites. Here's a short list of some better pages for "links".
When you subscribe to a mailing list (also called a
reflector) you will be sent an email anytime another member of the list
posts a message to the group. It's a great way to exchange ideas,
discuss issues, and announce important developments.
