My apologies if you are getting this for a second time, but since we had a slight SNAFU on getting he word out I want to make sure no one gets missed.
Many thanks to Saul Chernos - newest member of the BTC and our official "Canadian Connection" for setting this test up with CFFX. Jim Pogue Joint IRCA/NRC Joint Broadcast Test Committee Chairman Memphis, TN -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Saul Chernos Sent: Sunday, December 30, 2007 12:53 PM To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Amdx] DX test CFFX 960 Kingston ON I haven't been able to reach Jim Pogue of the BCB DX test committee - his voicemail box is full and he hasn't answered my e-mails. He's normally very responsive and great to deal with, so he may be away for the holidays. In the meantime, I have news about a DX test I would normally have asked him to announce, but time is getting very tight, so I have decided to issue the test notification directly. Please feel free to forward this far and wide, and to print in any paper, audio or electronic DX bulletins. - Saul Chernos DX TEST -- 960 CFFX ON Kingston TIME: Early morning of Tuesday January 15 (Monday night). MODE OF OPERATION: CFFX will test using its 10,000-watt daytime directional pattern. PROGRAMMING: Regular adult contemporary programming. Special test material will consists of three hourly voice announcements followed by special test material lasting several minutes. These will air roughly at the top of the hour, at approximately 0000, 0100 and 0200 EST, give or take a few minutes depending on the program log. CONTEXT: CFFX is completing its move to 104.3 on the FM band this morning, and 960 is scheduled to sign off for goood at 0600 EST. As part of the transition, the AM has simulcast the FM for the past three months. This test marks the final phase of the transition, and the test content will also air on 104.3. This is your last chance to log CFFX on 960, so if it takes two alarm clocks to wake you, well, you've been warned! We will issue QSLs, but I am not yet 100 percent sure who will handle the reports. Either the station, or me, or both of us. Regardless, we will definitely want audio recordings if at all possible, and we want reports sent via e-mail if at all possible. Snail-mail reports only when accompanied by SASE will be acknowledged. The QSL will be the same, regardless. We'll update the QSL situation soon.
