[aprssig] APRS I-gate in the Katrina effected areas

[Patrick Green]

Hi All,

I'm going to go to Louisiana later this week and was wondering if I should 
setup an I-gate in the areas. I don't see a whole lot of activity on the 
map. Is there any health and welfare traffic being handled locally in the 
effected areas? I'll be helping to provide internet access from effected 
areas. I can as a secondary project link up an APRS station to the internet 
and try to get the area's activities on the map. The only issue is, I'll 
only be there for 5 days and a rotation occurs. I will try to get this up 
and running but would like to know how beneficial this would be. I will be 
stationed at either Bogalusa, Gonzales or Lake Charles. From what I hear, 
these are regionally central points of service for the effected regions in 
Lousiana.
