comes from The Daily DX: "Tristan da Cunha (ZD9) was
hit by a powerful hurricane last week. Reports are that

Repetto's were in England when this happened and will not
be able to get back to Tristan until late August or early
September. Colin Topping, GM6HGW/ZD9HGW reported, 'The

island.' Anyone who can help supply any surplus equipment
is urged to contact Colin by e-mail at gm6hgw@hotmail.com"
