Hello,
Thank you for your report and I confirm the
details are correct. These transmissions were to fault-find on a 300 kW
sender at the UK HF transmitter station at Woofferton.
The engineers needed a long test time as the fault was of an intermittent nature.
Babcock,
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
playout system and incorporates non-copyright music and voice
announcements from one of the employees at the transmitter site.
Thanks for your interest.

"These transmissions were to fault-find on a 300 kW sender at the UK HF transmitter station at Woofferton."
Station name was not announced. I heard and reported these tests on SW in the autumn 2014, but received this answer yesterday.
