My intention wasn't to get you to "shove off".  What CK is saying is absolutly true and I don't think you thought of this.  I've have worked with ARES and been in an EOC during an actual emergency and the repeaters that are up with generator backup are in "red" mode for the emergency.  You're not going to be able to make personal calls.  It is a good idea to be able to monitor though and you don't need a license to do that.


And quite frankly your comment "To me HAM technology is very old and boring. " speaks volumes about your ignorance of the hobby,capabilities and the technology we have access to and use.
