I just saw Maggie and it reminded me to update this thread.

I found out how my system will be using Ham Radio in our DR/BC plan: we're building a completely redundant wireless network. If the entire infrastructure was down, we would have battery-powered radios communicating on pre-programmed memory channels, connecting battery-powered laptops at each facility. How awesome is that? Not bad for a hundred-year-old technology.
