My brother who has been a ham for many years was involved in our city's CD efforts and his ham group maintained operators, radio equipment and a repeater for the communication system. The powers that be decided they would no longer support or provide facilities for it, though he tried to convince them it was a worthwhile effort. Their reply was "don't worry we have cell phones" As I recall Sprint went down during TS Allison and showed us all just how reliable cell phones are in a disaster. LOL
