How will you be sure they actually copied your signal, and just didn't
claim to because they heard some Morse on a graveyard channel? That
power and frequency is not the stuff good DX is made of.

By Paul Swearingen
14 March 2014

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:
."

Just got an e-mail from the Engineer at WWXL-1450 to inform that regrettably,
tonight's DX test is cancelled.? His vehicle broke down and he cannot get to the
station.? He indicates he would re-schedule at a later date.

Following from the station engineer Jody Ritchie.

"The test did not happen last night due to some things that did happen at the
station it will happen next Saturday night from 11 till midnight eastern time"

This means the following.

WWXL 1450 kHz, Manchester, KY Saturday, March 22, 2014. 11:00 PM ET until Midnight
ET (same as 0300-0400 UTC).
