Hi Bob,

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I didn't have
access to the article yesterday.

Unfortunately, I can't show you the entire article. We
have a policty here against that.

I can, however, just show you the part where you're
quoted.

See below:

"We train volunteers weekly and hold quarterly
exercises in order for them to gain net control
experience," said Bob Gundrum, Emergency Coordinator
for the organization.

"One of our hams volunteered to work in Cupertino
for the 4th of July to be an extra set of eyes and
ears for the holiday activities," he said.

"One of our operators got in contact with people on
the East Coast and in Hawaii," Gundrum said.

"If we were called on to provide services for
Hurricane Katrina, we would have been able to provide
the support needed."

Bob, please keep in mind that we are currently
post-production, and it nearly impossible to remove or
alter any of the quotes.

Have a nice weekend!

-Samantha

Samantha,
    Did you get my phone request to review the Ham
Radio Operator 
article prior to publication.  In the past I have
been misquoted and it 
created problems for me.  Therefore I would just
like to review my 
comments prior to publication.

Thanks
Bob Gundrum

Hi Bob,

My name is Samantha. I'm a reporter with the
      

Sunnyvale
    

Sun. We're doing a story on ham radio and its role
      

in
    

emergency situations.

Are you available sometime this coming Wednesday
      

for a

It should take no longer than 15 minutes.

Thanks for your time,
