You're welcome.

Generally, trading statements that are issued on a Friday are a lot more negative than those issued early in the week , just an observation.

There was an IMS on 14 May last year so perhaps we will get some news shortly but I wouldn't bet on it.

via con - thanks for that snippet. Possibly not good for H1 but H2 is in the right place. As ever we need numbers to see how the business is progressing.

Trading statement is due on Friday.Positive story on sales progress and cashflow could give the share price a good kickup.

Rather negative comments coming out of Exane citing "Overall, we no longer recommend active exposure to the satellite industry." which relates to ISAT but should, in theory, have a cross over to our little AVN, as they state there´s too much supply versus demand

Personally I don´t agree, bwtfdik. Worth a read anyway, go to the 11.50 mark for the Exane statement and comment.

I would welcome it Extrader.....but I'm not sure they have to by AIM rules.

I have posted my views before and AVN's reluctance to speak to PI's, they refer to their broker who also refuse to speak to PI's......Unless things have changed that was what I found in the past.

Looking at the chart , right now i'd be a buyer at the 250p support level but would get out on a close below that , we may have a bit of a bounce today but i'll only be tempted back in at 250p (today).

On the other hand ................i think that the fundamentals are starting to look much better here so i'd like to be in for the next update which is due any time now.

[philo124] 23/5/2013 11:54

I think it might be worth waiting until tomorrow, certainly to see
how the US does today.

[extrader] 23/5/2013 11:08

Hi Yorgi,

Re yr 183, do you think there's been enough of a drop in share price now for management to deign to comment ? ;-

[buywell2] 23/5/2013 10:17

Overbought and over-hyped stocks falling today with the USA news

AVN could retest recent chart lows soon

200p chartwise now on

[gekks] 23/5/2013 10:12

Another great day on AIM :-(

Just seen this article regarding the use of Avanti in Lybia and Afghanistan

Atrexx, Avanti Communications Partner to Provide Satellite Broadband Services to Libya and Afghanistan
[Satellite TODAY 05-22-13] Satellite service provider atrexx Ltd. & Co. KG has added a new service platform to its product portfolio, specifically targeted at meeting the broadband demand in Libya and Afghanistan. Two Ka-Band spot beams of Avanti Communications' recently launched Hylas 2 satellite positioned at 31 degrees east, will now transmit atrexx' 2way2sat services. These services include fast access to the Internet, always-on and Voice-over-IP (VoIP) functionalities. For the 2way2sat services, atrexx will use the new iDirect Evolution X1 satellite modem to provide lower hardware cost.



Libya and Afghanistan, like other emerging regions of the world, are highly fragmented in terms of access to fast Internet services. Satellite technology is able to offer connectivity without the need for cable or fiber, which is often too expensive to roll out to more rural areas or to the desert.



"With the advent of Ka-Band, we can now provide shared and dedicated bandwidth services at a much lower price than on legacy Ku-Band," Miriam Zude, senior key account manager at atrexx, said in a statement. "A customer will save up 55 percent on the monthly invoice for a starter bandwidth package and up to 67 percent on a premium service."



The new services allow customers to choose from different packages with bandwidths from 256 kbps to 2048 kbps. All services are without a limitation in traffic volume and most are on a monthly recurring contract basis. In addition, atrexx responds with individual offers to special requests for higher data rates.



Using DVB-S2, the iDirect Evolution platform offers 30 percent more bandwidth efficiency in the outbound signal. In addition, Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM) dynamically adjusts and optimizes the outbound for each individual remote station. This translates into higher resistance to rain attenuation and in an additional bandwidth gain of some 50 percent at clear sky conditions, according to atrexx.


"We are sure that this new broadband product via Ka-Band satellite will help to close the digital divide between urban regions on the one hand and rural or desert regions on the other hand," Zude added.
