Cool Strange testcards
Thought it might be an idea to document a few of the weird and wonderful test cards that appear in the skies above Europe. This particular thread is for testcards only.

Test cards and information cards radiated overnight / during downtime only on this thread if you please - and no straight colour bars!

So firstly heres one spotted on 13E a few minutes ago

Sky 952 has an animated centre section and those white elongated line drawn S shapes are animated too.

12151V
27500 3/4
