> The WFIL DX Test will be conducted Sunday Morning from
> 12:00AM - 12:55AM Eastern (0500-0555 UTC). WFIL is licensed to Philadelphia,
> PA and will be operating on our Daytime Directional Array at 5KW. The end
> time has been adjusted to 12:55AM, instead of 01:00AM. This will afford listeners in our
> region to possibly hear other stations on 560. We will turn
> off our carrier from 12:55AM until 1:02AM, which will allow listeners to
> catch top of the hour IDs.
