Sun transit outages for satellite sites.

February 12, 2003 - 11:51pm | by Anonymous

This affects the satellite communities of:
* Fort Hope
* Webequie
* Weagamow Lake
* Slate Falls
* Sachigo Lake
* Fort Severn
* Kasabonika

Between the dates of February 22nd and March 3rd, 2003, short periods of network unavailability will occur as the sun passes directly behind the satellite.

This generally lasts about 7 to 15 minutes. Below is a chart of expected start and end times for the outages.
