The surge suppressor / power bar at WHIT shorted as a result causing a small fire in the unit. Damage was limited to the power bar. Battery back up kept the receiver running until 08:00UT DOY 174; data for DOY 173 (24 hours of data) and DOY 174 (8 hours of data) has been forwarded to CDDIS. Tracking commenced again effective 16:00UT DOY 179 (June 27). Data posted for DOY 179 will therefore be limited to 16:00 - 24:00. SITEINFO FILES: Site information files for FLIN and WHIT have been forwarded to the Central Bureau.
