Broadband satellite operator Avanti Communications Group Plc (LON:AVN) , reported last Wednesday that it had been making “excellent progress” since the launch of its first satellite, HYLAS 1, at the end of November.
Avanti is set to capitalise on demand for broadband services in rural UK communities with HYLAS 1, which has now had all its systems turned on. The satellite is understood to have reached geostationary orbit and the first transmissions have been received at Avanti’s primary Gateway Earth Station in the UK.
