More likey monday first signal test, SES need to get it stabilized in test location and if true to form do not work weekends.

Just my opinion as usual.

Yep. And if the French have anything to do with it they'll throw in a strike for good measure

As far as I'm aware, it's Astrium who have the responsibility for all the orbiting and testing of the Satellite and from the 2F testing they do work Saturdays!! Astrium also conduct the early life testing and once complete, will move 2E to SES's desired location and then the handover is given to SES who are in control from that point onwards.

Correct me if I'm wrong someone but that's how I understand it all works.

In order to avoid duplication and/or confusion, the time has now come to use the Testing Thread instead



I'll re-open this one for general use once we've established continuity.
