Nomad, thanks for the great post. I'm a licensed ham and computer geek and also would be interested in how I can help. I could conceivably deploy to the area as I have time available, but I don't have equipment to provide and I'd need my expenses covered (travel etc). I don't consider myself to be much of a comms or operations expert though. I'm mainly a software developer. So most of what I can do, can be done remotely.
