Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] WWXL-1450 test



No, it WOULDN'T be tonight... it would be SATURDAY night at 11:00pm Eastern!
"Saturday, March 22, 2014. 11:00 PM ET" doesn't mean Friday night the way I read it...

FYI, the *original* rescheduled test data was as follows:

WWXL 1450 kHz, Manchester, KY* Saturday, March 22, 2014. 11:00 PM ET
until Midnight ET (same as 0300-0400 UTC).

That would be tonight, and note it is before midnight eastern time.

The update late yesterday was unclear, made it look like 12-1PM (though
UTC indicated an early morning hour).

I think the only alternative for those who want to hear the test, if no
further information is available, is to try tonight from 11pm to 1 am
eastern.

I also gave it a shot in the last half-hour ... I had just arrived at
Burnt River and used my Tecsun ultralight as it's too hard to set up
a flag in three feet of snow at night.
There's also a test of 1330 in Monohans TX Saturday night / Sunday morning...
