[EAS] Identifying the Test on air

[Lotus Engineering]

        Our EAS tests are scheduled at the corporate level, usually moving up an hour each time, from about 830 AM to about 4:30 PM. The hour is defined, but not the time within the hour. The days are apparently random.  Now all I have to do is convince the Corporate VP who prepares that schedule that once a week doesn't mean Monday of this week, Friday of next, but rather once every 7 days!  It's a losing fight that I've given up on.  He is a senior VP after all! I only pick fights I have a chance to win.
