It will feature both area coverage predictions as well as point-to-point on-demand predictions. Presently, only area coverage has been completed and this can be seen at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.predtest.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.predtest.uk<\/a>. This will soon be followed by the P2P predictions. It is planned that following these trials the RSGB website will host the predictions.
