Derek's Journal Latest Updates from the field.
October 10 - 19: Padang Earthquake Published: Oct 28
The present relief work has highlighted a problem with our Troppodoc communications ! Following are messages extracted from various emails and texts Derek has sent as he has been able to find communication sites that work (mainly through borrowed time on friends laptops). To do his work in the field and stay in touch Derek is in urgent need of an up grade of his existing communications equipment (laptop and cellphone) . It doesn’t have to be top of the range equipment but it does need peripherals to work in a range of countries and most importantly be robust and lightweight . If any one would like to donate funds or the equipment itself please contact roger@troppodoc.com so that we can plan a cost effective upgrade. Yes a satellite phone would be fantastic but the operational costs would be prohibitive ..but all suggestions are welcome
