In the year 2005 the EGNOS enters the Operational Readiness Review phase becoming available for users in its almost full capability. It may be expected that very soon EGNOS will find significant interest among many users and will find many applications all over the Europe. The paper presents the summary of the tests of satellite positioning with using EGNOS (ESTB) signal conducted by author in the area of the Polish coast of the Baltic Sea during several years since 2001 till now. The results of conducted tests show the EGNOS (ESTB) performance at the edge of the nominal system coverage, verifying, in the experimental way, the predicted system accuracy and the efficiency of WADGPS EGNOS algorithms in this area. Additionally, the comparison of the results obtained during the subsequent years of the system development shows the gradual improvement in system performance coming with increased number of RIMS and the evolution from the EGNOS System Test Bed to the fully capable EGNOS.
