Yesterday WA1S, Ann, one of the TX5C ops, was heard reporting on the
difficult conditions on Clipperton.  The team has been battered with
multiple storms which have apparently caused numerous problems.  The
TX5C DXpedition team has lost several keyers, antennas, amplifiers
along with generator problems.  Two of the three SSB amps have died.
The team may begin shutting down operations on Friday and leaving the
island over the weekend, because of the weather.  The TX5C operators
have their own Blogs.  You can access them by going to
http://www.clipperton2008.org/operators/operators.htm and then
clicking on their photo.
