I checked near the end of my tape and definitely hear the sweep tones and
code.
Further listening a bit later today.

From Paul Walker: "Bob Souza, GM & Owner at KCKM 1330 Monahans, Texas
has agreed
to do a DX test for us DX'ers.
Date: Saturday March 22, 2014 from 12AM to 12:30AM CDT = 0500 GMT
(Friday night
into Saturday Morning). The test will be be at full daytime power and
pattern .…
12,000 Watts Non-Directional into a 5/8th wave tower. The test will
consist mainly
of Morse code, sweep tones, and sound effects known to cut through the
mud. There
will be a few voice announcements spread throughout the 30-minute test.
Bob prefers reports sent by email but will accept snail-mailed
submissions. If you
send an email, please send MP3 attachments only; WAV files would be too
big. Snail
mail reports can be sent with a CD or cassette cued up to the best part
of the
reception. The mailing address is: PO Box 990, Monahans TX 79756. Emails
should be
sent to
Bob has said a verification post card will be sent. I encourage you to
send just a
single stamp to help defray the cost of the postage. Bob didn't ask for
that, but
I think it would be a kind gesture.
If I have left anything out or anyone has questions, please email ME
directly:
