Hey Everyone,
This is Bobby Best... I had lined up to do an interview with both Mark Wells as a member of ALERT and John De Block for Amateur Radio Newsline in honor of the December 5th SKYWARN appreciation day, this past Saturday after the day's events... Just a little something about how important ham radio is to NWS and the role ALERT plays with SKYWARN spotters, in the field, at the NWS when there is a callout and such! I also thought this would be good national promotion of both the Birmingham NWS Office and of ALERT to, getting to talk about the ALERT group and such!
However, this past Sunday I came down with a BAD case of "walking" pneumonia and my voice is GONE, not to mention the fact that I feel terrible too... The folks at Amateur Radio Newsline have gotten Hap Holly KC9RP from Des Plaines, IL, that's also a ARN reporter to step in and fill in for me, with me being so sick... My problem is, I can't get in touch with Mark Wells to let him know of the change and the deadline for doing to story is Wednesday night!!!
If there is anyone else that could and would be willing to step in and fill in for Mark on this, or if Mark sees this message (sorry, Mark I lost your email and haven't been able to catch you on Facebook) I just need a willing ALERT member, an officer or board member I'm sure would be preferable, PLEASE let me know ASAP!!! Hap will be available to do the interview (he works during the day) tomorrow evening around 7pm or 8pm... SKYPE is better, but he can also do the interview by phone as well!!!
I had everything lined up and set up until I came down with pneumonia to do either during the day today Tuesday or during the day on Wednesday one... I really want to give Birmingham, Alabama, and ALERT some national publicity with this; I just need a last minute willing volunteer please!!!
I'm also about to email John De Block at his work email address and make him aware of the above too... I was going to do it with him during his office hours, but since my replacement can only do it, with the deadline, and with his regular work schedule during the day, tomorrow evening, I hope he can at least set up for one of the meteorologist on duty tomorrow evening to give him (Hap) a few sound bites anyway, since I doubt John will be there tomorrow evening, during the hours Hap can do it but there will at least be someone on staff there at The NWS tomorrow evening....
Thanks in advance for everyone's help and please someone get back with me ASAP!!!
