Not trying to start an argument (really!!) but ***why would a broadcast station even bother with these tests, other than maybe nostalgia or some sort of uber-techno-geekiness on the part of the Chief Engineer or GM*** ? I don't have any problem with DX tests (in fact, they're kind of neat) but I guess I'm asking what really motivated stations to start doing them way back when ? Sheer curiosity ? Along the same lines, how many broadcast stations respond to reception reports nowadays ? Just wondering...... |
