   HG>Well, if you have an emergency and call 'MAYDAY MAYDAY' any repeater   
   HG>should listen for your emergency message and somebody should reply.   
      
     That's what I state when running nets. If anytime during the net, an   
   emergency or priority traffic situation develops at their location, they   
   can break in at any time. At that point, we'll stop the net, and try to   
   help them deal with the situation.   
      
   HG>OK, I operate ham radio only by radio. I'm allowed a mast attached to   
   HG>the chimney and a wire antenna across the garden to a neighbors house.   
      
     Well, I don't have that luxury. I live in H.U.D. (Department Of   
   Housing and Urban Development) subsidized housing for the disabled...and   
   antennas are forbidden (although I do have a small magmount inside the   
   apartment, but that's the extent of it). Plus, the RFI could have an   
   effect on residents who have medical devices such as pacemakers,   
   defibrillators, oxygen tanks, power chairs, etc. Around here, they'll   
   sue at the drop of a hat, and I don't want that liability.
