The digital satellite broadcast provided by the WorldSpace Foundation is exceptionally reliable and sturdy, however, due to routine and scheduled maintenance needs, or the unlikely and rare event that a problem arises, the ALC Data channel may need to stop broadcasting for a short period of time. In the case of the daily maintenance, the satellite is serviced every mid-night for ten minutes.
Larger maintenance is rare and usually takes less than a day.
Moreover, this is often done late in the night so that it does not interupt broadcasts. If the problem persists, or you would like to know when the system will be operational again, please contact us.
