Y'know, with all the flack that's been happening, I haven't considered it.  Last year they dropped off because a timer died and was replaced.  I suppose it could be restarted.  This time I will try harder to make a CID for the 3am break.  Let me look at it.

I think I only got one or two responses.  Mail at that station is spotty, so I may have missed some.  I will include my address in the list and bulletin announcement.  For reference:

I also had made arrangements late in the season for the same basic thing on WNBH-1340 and WLKW-1450.  Both are GY'ers.  WNBH gets out particularly well due to the full 1kw into a roughly half wave tower.  And, being right on the coast in New Bedford, MA it does get down the east coast US very well.

When WNBH had to be off for tower work last year, I brought my R7A along and connected it to the tower.  WMID in NJ was heard, and a bunch under it.

The short daily test I think is a much better choice than an all-out one night stand.  This way bad propagation isn't so much of an issue.

Let me see what sort of tests I can set up.  Is Les on this list?
