[IRCA] DX Test Tonight (and Monday after sunset)

[Chernos Saul <sauldx@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

COMING TO A RADIO NEAR YOU TONIGHT ...




DX TEST: KBXD TX Dallas
Sunday March 17 – 
0000-0200 CDT (Saturday night into Sunday morning - TOH & BOH ONLY)
KBXD is testing its brand 
new full 50-KW six-tower day pattern – see online 
at:
http://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KBXD&service=AM&status=C&hours=D
The original plan was for a full two-hour test with Morse 
code, sweep tones, special music and other easily identifiable content. The test is still scheduled to go ahead, but because they have acquired programming that won't allow for the full test as planned, KBXD will instead run a two-minute test at the top and bottom of each hour, keeping the same time frame. We thank KBXD for doing what it can given the changed circumstances.
No 
e-mail reports accepted. Reports should be sent by regular postal mail. KBXD is 
graciously covering the cost of mailing out QSLs, so No need to send a SASE. 
Reports must include written or printed 
information with the listener's location, equipment used, and details about 
content heard. Please note that audio materials 
will not be returned.
Please send
