Hello,
As you may have heard, San Jose police determined sabotage caused phone
outage in Santa Clara, Santa Cruz counties today. Apparently, somebody
opened a manhole in South San Jose, climbed down 8 to 10 feet and cut four
or five fiber-optic cables. Phone, Internet, and email service has been out
all day Thursday, with no ETR. See the details here
http://www.mercurynews.com/topstories/ci_12106300, or google "att outage
California".
Santa Clara County RACES was activated and provided Mutual Aid Communicators
to south county cities, one request coming in from Morgan Hill EOC.
Also, the message below sites message traffic by packet via several BBS
stations.
In short, while we all prepared for "the big one" in the bay area, it
doesn't take much to thrust amateur radio into the limelight and put our
resources and skills to use. Packet is alive and well.
Regards,
Jim O KN6PE
EC, Cupertino ARES/RACES
