Barry, I've heard word that there will be NO WARL 1320 DX Tests at all this year, sorry to say. Mainly because WARL is now shutting down at about 10pm each night and not signing back on till 6am. Paul Walker www.onairdj.com On Sun, Jan 18, 2009 at 10:33 AM, Barry McLarnon b...@bdmcomm.ca

Tried for WOON-1240 test at 0200 this morning, but no sign of tones or code IDs in the graveyard hash. Gave up and went to bed at 0235. Oh well, better to try and fail than fail to try, but it seems like this test didn't run at all. 73 Mike Brooker Toronto, ON
