A reminder that the Testing starts at 1230GMT/1330CET/0730ET.

Hi,
A reminder that there is a Test this morning at 1000GMT/1100CET/0500ET and there will be feeds on IS-1002, AB-3, IS-905, and IS-805.
Please remember that the broadcast parameters are DVBS-2 and 8PSK (except for Is-805). It is crucial you know how to set this in your receivers (and it causes more calls to Helplines than any other issue)
