N5FDL.COM Handles Haiti H&W Inquiry
Monday, January 18, 2010 at 08:11AM I was surprised last night to receive an e-mail request to handle a welfare inquiry from the family of Fr. John Hinault, HH6JH, who has reportedly been on the air since the earthquake.
His cousin, Rev. Armand Hinault, said he heard that Fr. Hinault was alive and had been on his ham radio and was apparently alive.

E-mail received a short time ago, sent to Rev. Armand Hinault about his cousin, HH6JH, in Haiti:
Rev. Henault,
The last contact with Father John was last night by a station in Florida. He is OK, but needs gasoline & supplies both at Les Cayes, and Lie A Vache. We are hoping to hear from him again sometime later today. I am sure they are trying to conserve resources. Please feel free to contact me at any time for additional.information or if you have traffic to pass. Additionally, the following site is a good place to post requests for health and welfare requests: http://qso.com/satern/emailfrm.htm Our net has been talking to the very few amateurs that are able to get on the air from Haiti.
