In 1955, The Phil-Mont Mobile Radio Club provided emergency communications during the devastating flooding along the Delaware River and in the Pocono Mountains following Hurricane Diane, the sixth costliest U.S. hurricane of the 20th century...fifty years before Hurricane Katrina.
In 1959, the club produced this short film to explain amateur radio, and especially mobile communications as practiced by the club.
(The main film begins after a three minute interview with Jim Spencer, W3BBB, produced by a local cable channel many years later)
