Re: [IRCA] [AMFMTVDX] KBOI DX Test?

["Bill Harms" <wharms@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Les/Bill, 

I realize that my suggestion which follows may not work out. But how 
about contacting WSCR and see if they have a planned silent period 
and run the KBOI test during that time?  That would maximize the 
possibility of East Coast DXers hearing KBOI.  It would take a lot of 
coordinating, assuming WSCR is even game.  This practice is not new 
and was done by stations in the 1930's to facilitate coast to coast 
reception for DXers.  I fully realize that things change, but I thing 
it might be worth a shot.
