RMT's are scheduled at the originating end. It's up to the licensee to
re-transmit at their convenience within the allotted time window. If
they're running unattended, then the RMT went out as it should have..at the
end of the 1:00 allotted time..
If it was a RWT, then that station could be slaved off another station's
box and THAT station planned theirs and the 2nd station went along for the
ride.
