This will be a real challenge with a local on 1550, but I'm gonna try.

La Voz Cristiana 1550.
Please do not call or email the station during the test, as this is being done automatically via Remote Control and Computer Automation.
QSL Information: Reception reports are desired via e-mail (1st choice) and snail mail (only if e-mail is not available) Station would prefer to received recordings of the test. Submit reports to:
les@highnoonfilm.com and please put "KXTO DX Test" in the subject line.
Preferred audio formats on the computer are MP3's due to the fact a wav file of the same size is nearly 10x bigger. If you need help converting wav files, just ask. If you absolutely need to mail a cassette, PLEASE cue the tape up to the spot where the best reception is. If you mail a CD, only include the pertinent parts.
All standard mail reports should go to: Les Rayburn, High Noon Film, 100 Centerview Drive Suite 111, Birmingham, AL 35216
Please include an SASE for reply. (Station Management and Consultants have authorized Mr. Rayburn to issue QSL's on their behalf!)
Thanks to First Broadcasting Of Nevada, Inc/KXTO 1550 General Manager Jose Pacheco for helping out all us DX'ers in the IRCA, NRC and everywhere else. He was extremely helpful and willing to do this for us, AGAIN! This will be a good chance for some of us to nab Nevada in our
log books.
