J.D.: Shortly before the KKMO DX Test was aired, Monte Passmore added only sweep tones and a short station identifier to what was to be run during the test, according to the e-mails I saw and to dxtest.info. There was no mention explicitly that Morse code would be included in the station identifier, although some of us assumed that it would be.
During some of the tests conducted last season, I found it easier to hear sweep tones than some of the Morse code IDs. Probably related to how my old ears pick up on the changing pitch of the sweeps.

At > 0302:20 KKMO was in the middle of sweeps Wonder what hapened? Recent pre-test press releases indicated that code would be run. 73 - J.D.
