Summary
On June 14, 2008, a forum participant reported that a mainland-fed cellular site serving the area had gone out of service. A follow-up roughly five hours later said service had begun working again.
Evidence limits
This is a probable, short-lived outage reconstructed from two community posts. It does not identify the carrier or equipment, establish the cause, or prove that every part of the island lost service.
