Communications used between disasters of Hurricane Katrina and Asian Tsunami


During the Hurricane Katrina, the telephone lines were down so no could contact anyone. the ham radios really helped here. They found people in the hardest areas using the radio, and also saved stranded flood victims in the Louisiana and Mississippi. Ham Radios communicate using voice, computer, television and morse code. These Ham Radios saved more than 15 lives during the hurricane. The ham radio has already saved hundreds of lives and still continuing to do so.
