摘要

Disasters continue to plague humanity. Even with the technological innovations which man’s ingenuity hasconcocted, there continue to be a variety of both natural and man-made catastrophes. These range from floodstorm, earthquake and fire to the sometimes more devastating famine, civil disorder and revolt againstauthority. Yet, thankfully, not all of these sad occurrences are accompanied by communications emergencies.This paper discusses the role of the Amateur Services in the restoration of communications to assist in themitigation of the effects of disaster.Unfortunately, a review of the major natural disaster emergencies clearly indicates that all too often thesecatastrophes occur in the developing world where the pre-emergency telecommunications infrastructure is, atbest, marginal compared to those facilities which are available in the more developed world. Thus, onceagain, it is a demonstrable fact that the telecommunications gap between the two worlds that exists todaystands in the way of human progress toward a higher standard of living for all. It is a fact, for example, thatmore than half the population of the world has never made a telephone call. Therefore, an outage oftelephone service has a more severe effect in some countries than others where the disruption of servicewould hardly be noticed by the average person.Just as there are two sources of disaster, natural phenomena and man-made occurrences; there are also twoways in which the Amateur Services may be able to contribute to a communications emergency. The first isthrough the use of their personally owned amateur radio equipment and the second is through theemployment of their skills as communicators, forming a cadre of technically trained personnel familiar with thetechniques of sending and receiving message traffic via radio. Obviously, these two manner of providingassistance are not mutually exclusive.
