[IRCA] WBOB DX Test time



Just to clarify the starting time of the WBOB DX Test, Brandon, I assume that the EST, CST, MST, and PST times are correct and that the UTC times were meant to read 0500-0800 UTC.  Is that correct?  I want to make sure the test isn't really going to start at 0100 EST if the UTC times are correct instead.  Thanks.
