I am sure that most of you who have been testing on W2a have been experiencing some problems. To overcome the issues, we decided to route the feed to this satellite through a different vendor. We tested at 0200-0400 this morning. The test was successful
To ensure the robustness of the feed, we have changed ONE parameter: the symbol rate is now 12.891Msym/sec. all other details remain unchanged.
Services on IS10-02 and W2a down. Successful test complete.
IS10-02 established at 01:53 GMT / W2a at 02:00
W2a still has audio issues / W2a parameters changed at 02:40. Good audio now.
Services down on IS10-02 and AB3 at 19:00 GMT. Good clean transmission.
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)
