Please be aware that this is a rough mix of this afternoons rehearsal. You might find (or think) that the balance is not what you might hope for. Of course it will sound absolutely lovely tomorrow.
Audio missing between 18:12 and 18:14 GMT. Audio good now.
Stable pictures established on both IS10-02 and AB3 (17:58 GMT)
This test in now on the air on IS10-02 and AB3.
Call your in-country Helpline if you are having tuning problems
There will be another test on W2a tonight 19:45 – 20:45 GMT 21:45 – 22:45 CEST
I am sure that many of you are experiencing problems with this feed. There is no audio and the picture breaks every few seconds.
Although it is the same, perfect test material as we always use, it seems that Globecast in London (who put it up onto W2a) are unable, at this time, to resolve the problems you are experiencing.
We are doing out very best to see that they can overcome their current problems.
Services down on IS10-02 & AB3 at 09:32GMT / 10:32 BST
We apologise for the lack of pictures on AB3 for at least the first hour of the test period. This is being investigated but appears to be a problem at the French turnaround station in Paris.
Services up at 07:57GMT / 08:57BST.
IS10-02 stable showing NT live test loop.
AB3 transmitting but currently showing black. Will update as soon as pictures present.
A reminder there is a test at 0800GMT/0900BST/1000CEST today, 23/8. this will be carried on IS10-02, AB3 and W2a.
