The WLDS test will be done at full daytime power.This test will like be an entire hour of sound effects, odd noises, sweeptones, morse code and voice announcements. How much advance notice is needed by the clubs for print, email, website and etc? Do people prefer Friday night into Saturday or Saturday night into Sunday? When dates and times are finalized, information on where to send reception reports will be provided. No one will be at the stations during these tests as they will be automated but it will required the Chief Engineer of all the stations, Gary Glaenzer, to be up at 1 and 2am in the morning to dial in from home.
