WXHL DX test - update

Monday, February 23 2004

An update to my earlier message about the WXHL test...

DXer Les Rayburn has volunteered to help with responding to QSL reports for the test (MANY, MANY THANKS!!) *AND* he got a .wav file of WXHL's Morse ID to the engineer, so there will be code used in the test!

So, to repeat:

Monday, March 29, 2004 - WXHL-1550, Elkton, MD will conduct a DX test from 12:01 - 1am EST.

The test will consist of numerous voice IDs, code IDs, and forgotten/rare 70's and 80's Top 40 music and a few test tones. Currently, the engineer is uncertain of just what power the test will be run at; the station is normally 1000/1 w U3.

The station prefers that reception reports be e-mailed; send them to:

d_oetting@hotmail.com

The engineer (Dan Oetting) says he will respond to reception reports via e-mail but not via snail mail. However, in your e-mail, please CC: Les Rayburn at les@highnoonfilm.com. Les will respond to snail-mail reception reports with a special QSL card, printed just for the test. You can send your reports to Les at:

Les Rayburn
High Noon Film
100 Centerview Drive
Suite 111
Birmingham, AL 35216
Also, if you include your postal mailing address with your e-mail to Les, he will send you a card as well. PLEASE don't forget to include return postage!!

And remember, whether you hear the test or not, if you try for the test, please drop the station a note thanking them for running the test - and let me know about your results, too!

Thanks!

Lynn.
