That is a good point. I am sure that if/when the big one hits and we need to pass emergency communications, we will have to do it under less than optimal conditions or "rules" including on the satellites. When such an occassion occurs, I doubt everyone will be limiting themselves to 5 watts or less, or only 1 QSO per satellite per day or weekend. I think most people will be trying to get through any way they can to pass traffic. We should get used to the pandamonium, that it what it will actually be like.
