    April 2014 Frequency Measuring Test, How well can you do with just the
    radios in your shack?

The test transmission will be from a single station in Oklahoma using the call 
sign W100AW/5.  The transmission format will be a single, unmodulated carrier.  
Measure the frequency of that carrier as accurately as possible.

The FMT will start on 20 meters near 14121 kHz at 10:30 PM EDT on April 9th 
(Wednesday evening) in North America. (That is 0230 UTC on April 10th, Thursday 
morning, in Europe.)

A special W100AW Frequency Measuring Test certificate will be available to 
stations submitting a measured frequency within ±10 Hz of any of the three 
transmitted frequencies.
