                         GPS TRACKER ADVISORY

GPS TRACKER ID: WHIT
MONUMENT No.: 7787017    
LOCATION:       Whitehorse, Yukon  Canada

ADVISORY: The surge suppressor / power bar at WHIT apparently shorted
causing a small fire in the unit; damage is (hopefully) limited to this
power bar. As a result the site has been out since Friday June 21. New
equipment is presently being acquired; assuming no further damage to any of
the GPS equipment we should be back on line later today (Monday, June 24).
We will advise when data is once again availble.

Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Cheers

Mike
