No echo was detected.

The speaker’s audio quality was clear and at a high quality standard.

The audio levels remained consisted and at excellent levels.

There was no detectable ambient audio and no amount of movement in the rat levels when the speaker wasn’t talking.

This was very good.

The overall video quality of the transmission streams was very good.

With slight adjustment to the video quality levels, changing from “quality” level 75 to 95, even better video quality was achieved.

It should be noted, that the colour levels on the “Tripod” camera are somewhat “unrealistic”, thought the quality is still acceptable.

Due to the utilization of pan/tilt and location of cameras, good positioning of participants is achieved.

Machines were verbally confirmed to be NTP synchronized.

The Access Grid node operator connected to the Australian designated Unicast bridge (APAG), in which both audio and video were working fine.

The Access Grid node operator confirmed that initially they were using multicast, in which both audio and video were working fine.

The AG node restarted fine and had everything back up and running within a couple of minutes. No setup or adjustments were required, other then turning on the talk button.

Not Applicable.

Text messages were both received and sent successfully using the AGTK 3 Text Chat.
