Re: [IRCA] WSRY DX Test



J.D. and Willis,

Since the test consisted of sweep tones, Morse code IDs, what I call "stair step" tones (rising or falling pitch in discrete intervals rather than a continuous rise or drop as with sweep tones), voice announcements, etc., I'll bet Tom just made a typo in his original message when he wrote "staincase wave" for a "staircase wave," meaning the staircase or stair step tones.

 At 23:11 on 1550 heard Staincase wave, weak in the mix of
 several other
 stations. Did not expect much from WSRYdue to
 directional pattern but they
 are making it out here!
