Hi Steve, AI7W

For "demonstrate the efficiency" I mean demonstrate to the public 
opinion and to the governement authority  that the Satellite Amateur
Radio is " useful " during the emergency when probably the public 
and governement radio communications are down in the disaster
area.

The importance of Satellite Amateur Service during the emergency 
is the main point to justify the frequency allocation during the 
WARC and ITU Conference.
