Welcome Paul, I agree, Mike, hats of to Paul for at least trying with the "pay to play" DX Test. I sorta got this whole DX Test $ thing going with a suggestion but WTH is wrong with radio, today, where a BROKERED station would not accept cold, hard cash for a DX Test?! That really made me mad - not only that they wouldn't consider it but their bad attitude. That got me thinking some more (I'm sorry, bad things happen when I do that), so why not a 15 or 30 minute "welcome to DX" or "enjoying the radio hobby" with code and tones, interspersed, infomercial? I know that sometimes the engineers are willing on a DX test but not the station. That might be a legitimate way of getting a Test in, when the engineer is okay with it but not the station.
