Dear Marc,
Yes, today we got access to the antenna and started the transmitter at around 14:00 UTC for some testing to make sure everything is working OK for tomorrow.
The test was successful so everything is looking good for tomorrow’s transmission.

Hello,
when I was testing my new loop with the russian alpha navigation I recognized the SAQ test transmission today and was very happy. Last year and the year before I tried to receive SAQ without luck but tomorrow it looks very good !
