As our coastal research station on Inis Meáin is shaping up, with support from the local community, we are getting ready for the deployment of our met ocean buoy.  Radio tests have been conducted between our research station and MFV Westward owned by Tommy Flaherty of Inis Mór. For the duration of the experiment the fishing vessel was connected to Inis Meáin without Sattelite of Cellular data, sometime with speeds of up to 160 Mbps which allowed video call to the mainland and streaming realtime data.
