Excellent reception, I'm wondering if this is Woofferton

1445 "You are listening to a test transmission" to a music mix, loops
1451 I'm thinking for sure this is Woofferton, they just gave transmissiontest@gmail.com address
1454 Off or antenna switch, if there faint?

Email response back from Woofferton:

" Hello Dean,

(The freq was 15510 kHz.)

Thank you for your report and I confirm the details are correct. These transmissions were to fault-find on a 250/300 kW sender at the UK HF transmitter station at Woofferton in England.
 
These duration of these tests can be variable as the engineers can sometimes need a long time to establish a fault or they may interrupt the test, make an adjustment and resume. This is particularly so if the fault is of an intermittent nature.
 
Encompass Digital Media, Woofferton is the only remaining UK HF sender broadcast station and also is the only one with this transmission test audio and email address.
 
The audio is contained in a file play-out system and incorporates non-copyright music and voice announcements from one of the engineers, Martin, 2E1EKX at the transmitter site.

There is a Club amateur radio station on site with the callsign M0WOF and the operators are Matt G8XYJ, Dave M0MYA, Gillian M0OVW,  John G1JOD and Martin 2E1EKX.

The amateur radio repeater GB3VM that was on site has recently been moved and the history of it is here    https://hbrg.co.uk/gb3vm/

Thanks for your interest."
