I think I heard them, but I don't think I heard the test itself. They
are almost local for me and I can hear them in the mix in the daytime.

David Bill,
I am surprised I heard the sweep tones on both tests as it is Summer. I
kind of hope they run a test later on in the Fall or Winter.

Didn't stay up too late for this one, given the local flamethrower (and
my employer) on 1370 just down the street...but I had three unIDs on
1360 before turning in for the night about 12:20 AM - someone playing
oldies that may well have been WNJC, someone with Coast-to-Coast AM, and
a few ESPN

Isn't tonight the test for WNJC 1360khz in New Jersey which runs different
power, patterns throughout the night starting at midnight eastern..It may
cost you some sleep, but it looks like a fascinating test. Chris K4NHL

Chris,
Yes, it is suppose to start at Midnight and run to 6 AM. Unfortunately
the A went up to 17, but maybe the signal will make it through. I plan
to stay up until at least 0500 EDT and give it another shot. This looks
great!

Late breaking DX news, just received from John Duke Hamann at WNJC 1360khz
in Vineland, NJ. They're doing another maintenance test! More details to
follow but here's the early word:

I got all my parts in for working on the transmitter this

Just a quick note, the test was not heard here. I tuned in from 10:10 to 10:45
PM PDT (1:10-1:45 AM EDT) and only heard a talk station, a music station and a
Spanish station all mixing together.
Thanks to all for the test. I have a verie from them as WWBZ in 1974 from my
Michigan DX days.
The Amadeus Pro sonogram shows two unusual signals, one at about 1.1
kHz, with slight drift, and another, which meanders about, between
750 Hz and 850 Hz. This is over the time period from midnight to
02:40 am.

I went back and reviewed my SDR recordings of 1360, and saw a carrier
on 1359, present well before the start of the test; it was audible as
well and faded out by 0500 UTC. I would think that's consistent with
a TA (on this side of the country),

several other stations from 0001 to tune-out at 0017 EDT with sweep tones,
step tones, slide tones, telephone tones, MC IDs, phonetic female voice

Walt,
There was another SSer mixing with KKMO here, KUIK with SS? I could not
hear their normal talk in the jumble, so maybe they are SS at that time.
If anyone caught CW, it was KOHU and then a bunch of other weaker stuff
under that.

No QRSS noted here just the one shot of sweep tones.

bury it within the regular data, but segment it in some way so that the

In looking at the log, using the sonogram display in Amadeus Pro, the

Pinpoint customers who are looking for what you sell.
WNJC has agreed to add some Quasi-QRSS to their test signals during this
weekend's maintenance. The broadcast test committee has sent a .wav file
containing the slow speed Morse Code tones to WNJC.
The QRSS signal is encoded at 2.5khz. Dot length is 5 seconds in length.

I was not sure if the 1360khz WNJC test was still
going on so I gave it a listen??? No tones or test but
at 01:18 did get a good ID then the song When Will

I also picked up another new one on 1360khz. It was
