Much as I suspected, a 6 month test:

ST. HELENA Just got a nice reply from Laura Lawrence at R. St. Helena.

"I just read that you will be testing on 11092.5 USB Shortwave this
Thursday. I was curious as to the reason why you will be testing and how
long the test will take place?? I assume it may simply be a "6 month
checkup" so to speak....

"Hi Dave
The test is precisely that - a 6 month check-up to ensure everything is
still working correctly.
It should only last about 5-10 minutes.
I hope you will be able to tune in and receive us.
Best regards
Laura
