Recorded my usual top of the hour recordings last night using
Total Recorder.
My normal procedure is to start recording 2 min prior to TOH
(00:58) and run
it for two minutes after. A total of four minutes for each
hour.
In every recording between Midnight and 6AM local, I was able
to hear the
WVNN "Inventory Insert" test. Be advised that the actual time
"floats"
due to programming, but always fell within this
window.
The station is also running the test at the bottom of the hour
(00:30) though
again it floats a bit. I've also heard it several times during
local breaks
throughout the hour.
250 Watts with a directional pattern is a tough target,
especially with
WABC being so dominant, but I'm surprised more folks haven't
logged
this one.
Unfortunately, I think a lot of people were discouraged when
there was a negative report from a DX'er only 40 miles
away...but
keep in mind that DX'er lies right in the null of the pattern.
The test runs again tonight and Friday. I'm sure we'll all
have
better luck with WUMP 730 next week, but I'd love to
see
some more folks catch WVNN on this test.
