Further to IGSSTATION-5254 & 5258, a new modem arrived in Alert last Friday but installation has been delayed by a persistent polar bear. Nunavut Wildlife has been called in to remove the bear. Until then, the station is under lock down. I will advise when the modem is replaced and, hopefully, the backlog of data since January 15 is recovered. We do not expect any loss of data.
