Opened Outage Report

high reflected power

Status switched to 'In Progress'

replaced damaged end of transmit cable, there is a power outage on the island now, a power pole fell into the marsh on Feb 7 and it may take several days for the power company to restore service

Major cost for power company to repair broken line and all power poles going out to island are old so the company is considering its options. Power will take weeks (at least) to restore and it may not be the same type of conventional power.

The property owners and power company could not agree on a solution so grid power is no longer available on the island. All of the equipment has been removed from the site except for receive cables, a buried section of rx mast, and the tx base. This site might be re-established, but only if we can find funds to set up a solar power solution.

Status switched to 'Closed'
