KATRINA -- The Untold Story
MPEG files may be
good enough for your computer, but the files do not have high enough resolution
for "real" TV work. To get a DVD of the video, please write to hello@arrl.org with your name, address and where you
will be placing it. The DVD's are not cheap, so we cannot just speculatively
pass them out. If you have a local TV station that must have BetaSP or
the full, uncompressed digital files, please send me an email with specifics
about what they need to hello@arrl.org .
