GB News is now broadcasting a looped graphic animation accompanied by test tone, as its test transmissions continue on digital satellite.

A digital clock – showing the time in GMT – has been overlaid. The channel had previously been airing a static caption on DSAT, accompanied by the same digital clock.

Playout of the channel is being handled by Red Bee Media.

A formal launch date for GB News has yet to be announced.
