Anyone with a ham radio could send and anyone with one could recieve.

1. The channel could be recorded 24/7 and relevant clips could be transcribed (and translated if appropriate) along with the audio clip
2. Ham radio is portable so the trasmitting station could move as the environment permits to avoid being located
3. Multiple recieving stations can publish the stream over the internet creating a redundant solution
4. A second channel can be established to transmit world news into affected areas
5. Text to speech engines could allow for over-the-air updates via email, IM, SMS or posts on a blog

I’m not a ham radio operator but in times of crisis these individuals have always come to the aid of their respective areas to ensure communication lines remain open.

My thoughts go out to those affected by the current crisis.
