The launch of Hylas 4 made no difference to the share price. I don't expect the launch of Hylas 3 to either.
That is it. If all works well, then we are finally set in to reap rewards. It will be a slow progress , no doubt, but we are heading in the right direction.
July 24 Ariane 5 • Intelsat 39 & EDRS-C
Launch window: 1930-2147 GMT (3:30-5:47 p.m. EDT)
Launch site: ELA-3, Kourou, French Guiana
Arianespace will use an Ariane 5 ECA rocket, designated VA249, to launch the Intelsat 39 and EDRS-C communications satellites. Built by SSL, the Intelsat 39 satellite will replace Intelsat 902 and provide broadband networking and video distribution services in Africa, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, plus broadband connectivity for mobile users in the Indian Ocean region. The EDRS-C satellite, built by OHB System AG, will be the second node in the European Data Relay System, a network developed by the European Space Agency and Airbus Defense and Space providing high-speed laser communications links between low-orbiting satellites and ground stations. EDRS-C also carries a hosted steerable Ka-band communications payload named Hylas 3 for Avanti Communications. Delayed from June. [June 13]

This should take place next Wednesday I believe
You have to admire his CON-sistency though Hits?
There has to be some optimism on this board or it may as well be closed down?
And he is right, this will be a multibagger .... even if it becomes infinity times zero, the price is so low any sort of recovery will be a multi-bagger.
486th time lucky with your recommendation, GCCRa? Whaddya reckon?
5G Compatability now proven, SP at an all time low, while deals are flooding in ! Was there ever a better time to top up !!?? I think not ! Fill yer boots folks. Multi bagger for sure now !!!
Whereas it is of course fine for AVN to see if its infrastructure can provide anything of use to a nextgen cellular network like 5G...
...I'm (as ever) having issues with the appropriateness of satellite broadband-based backhaul to 5G. As some here will know, I've got the self-same issues with satellite and 4G, even though freely acknowledging AVN's ESN deal with EE here in the UK.
The following direct quote taken Here from cassius's posted link encapsulates my issue:-
"As part of the integrated setup, Avanti has installed a 1.2 m iDirect terminal providing satellite backhaul bandwidth (15Mbps downlink / 5Mbps uplink) through HYLAS 2 to the Limassol platform using Avanti’s Gateway Earth Station located in Cyprus."
Now, although I don't expect that 5G will get anywhere near its theoretical maximum speeds measured in Gigabits per second once deployed, it's reasonable to expect it will offer performance in the mid hundred Megabits per second in the real world - say 300-500 Mbps. So about 10 to 12 times that of existing 4G/LTE.
So how does providing backhaul at 15 Mbps have any relevance at all to 5G? Besides of course in the case of very short-term or emergency temporary deployments?
Oh and just to throw this chestnut in again. Existing 4G latency is typically around 30-40ms. 5G latency is expected to be about one tenth of that... so 3-4ms. And satellite? 300-400ms...
Cue Tyche... heh.
My broker's spread is 1.6p to 2.35p , and they value them at 1.975p in my portfolio.
I saw 1.975 and 1.568 here - quite a difference!
Been watching WC cricket semi and did not realise the hour, thought Hits post had galvanised something.
...for the new BoD and Kyle Williams, who I don't believe have put much of a foot wrong at all since taking over the tiller of HMS AVN. The fact that the SP is again plumbing new 52 week lows is not down to them and their actions in the least.
The question remains - can the new regime turn HMS AVN fast enough to avoid the massive and looming iceberg which Williams and his team of w*****s idiotically steamed full speed at (while happiy lining their own pockets in term sof salaries and share options to the tune of millions)?
Looking at the current SP, it seems that the market is not at all sure that the iceberg can be avoided, no matter how talented the current skipper may be. Legacy debt is a hard hard millstone to get one's neck out of...
But GL to KW anyway.
crescendo - dicky d string? brilliant g string though.
And in x years times this will be the finale when the share price is £7 again :O)
The guy is a genius! What a cresceno!

Looking at the 0% movement every day , week and month made me think it would be nice if LSE played appropriate music for each stock.
Dire Straits "the long road" is my suggestion here.

oops, hTTp://financialresults.co.za/mvela_ar2008/bus_vox_telecom.htm is a better bet
www.voxtelecom.co.za suggests they are worth £118M or 2.1Bn rand
a lot of money they have not got.
Looks like AVN isn't going down anytime soon. In fact, it is trying to expand the business. worldwide. A glimpse of hope, i say.
"Avanti has invested over R 2.1B (143M USD) in local infrastructure and new offices in South Africa." That's a lot of money.
Another agreement.

I'm wondering if the rise back to 2p is the start of the recovery. There are certainly a number of hurdles to get over, and a fall or trip at any of them could potentially spell the end, but at least this seems to be going up rather than down. I am even tempted to top up at these levels. Anyway enjoy the weekend.
I have to smile at you engineers who twaddle on about latency on satellites.
I send a post and wait for the screen to echo it 30 seconds later - and we are worried about a few microseconds of latency :O)
Showing off , knowing the irritating two won;t want to see 2p against their posts :O)
LS have put the beta version live so you may be well advised to change you bookmarks from "beta" to "www" because it has improved my viewing. (was getting "page not found").
Just heard sausages are known as bangers because of the war years - they added a lot of water to them and they used to bang in the frying pan!
Will it still be 2p though :O)
if the market size has legitimately increased then that should be very good for the SP
