REACHING OUT TO THE WORLD (Continuedfrom pago I) Dave Jacobsen, of Elgin, pointed out that amateur radio operators carried the brunt of emergency communications in California when an earthquake wiped out normal lines earlier this year. Jacobsen said the operators pooled their equipment in order to set up two campers which were parked at the end of Matanuska Trail, in Glacier Ridge. One of the campers was equipped for Morse code operations, while the other was set up for voice communications. Inside the Morse code camper, it was almost As if one were in a library as the silence was broken only by the sound of transmission and the oc­ casional tapping of a computer keyboard. Waiting for a contact to be made, or a response given to a query, the Morse code operators sat quietly, con­ centrating intently upon the audible dots and dashes coming in through the headsets. The other camper was alive, by comparison, as the air was a jumble of radio hiss, operators asking for confirmation or wishing good luck and spinning the various knobs and dials in search of another contact. Outside, gasoline engine generators JULY 1, IMS provided power for the radios and an old fire department ladder truck provided additional height for the antennas. An hour into the exercise, the operators at N9KC had made contact with stations in all corners of the continental United States and even some in other countries. The radios at this stations were capable of working eight individual bands, which covered a major portion of the radio spectrum, Jacobsen said. The American Radio Relay league takes all the information collected and comes up with a listing of the top 100 stations.

Each hospital maintains a supply of blood, but due to the 21-day shelf life of units, a hospital blood supply must be replenished regularly.
