Another interesting factoid about the xband is a short-lived station called k-truck. This was a station that was operated by the US military somewhere in Maryland. K-truck was a test of a transmitter that was built by the government to conduct psychological warfare in Bosnia. Before it was shipped over there they wanted to test it and as a result a group of volunteers operated it for a few weeks. The programming consisted of rock music with announcements. They solicited input from dxers and others interested in providing signal and quality reception reports. I heard it frequently when I lived in Metuchen New Jersey. I don't remember how much power they ran but it was widely heard by dxers around the country and farther a-field.
