Thanks for setting up the test should go to my predecessor as IRCA-NRC DX
Test coordinator Jim Pogue. And to chief engineer Craig Baker for running
it. This is among the most widely heard of tests, from the UK to Oregon,
from Alberta to Colorado to New Jersey. With more reports to hear about,
maybe. Really glad this one skipped over the pond.

PLEASE GIVE THIS INFORMATION THE WIDEST POSSIBLE DISSEMINATION
This is a reminder of the ***two separate*** DX tests from WKVQ radio
scheduled TONIGHT.
WKVQ, 1540 Khz, 10 KW, Eatonton, GA -- TWO TESTS TONIGHT
*: 0100-0130 EST (0600-0630 UTC). This test is being conducted especially
for DXers in Europe in hopes that they will have a shot at hearing WKVQ

before their local sunrise.

Tests will include morse code and voice IDs, special music and sweep
tones.
Please also remember that the time change occurs TOMORROW Night.

Special
thanks to Chief Engineer Craig Baker for making this test possible. And
