[WARC] EComm is Changing

[Len Litvan]

Dan,

I agree.  See the appropriate subparts and sections of Part 97 below.  
No mention of drills or preparedness.  Also the "waiver" of the rules 
does not apply unless there is "immediate" safety of human life and 
protection of property--and normal communications are "not available".


        §97.403 Safety of life and protection of property.

No provision of these rules prevents the use by an amateur station of 
any means of radiocommunication at its disposal to provide essential 
communication needs in connection with the immediate safety of human 
life and immediate protection of property when normal communication 
systems are not available.
