I think I read that they also provided a phone number to
someone with a 'kill switch' in case QRM does occur.

I read their experiment.  They will transmit only a CW (unmodulated) 
signal for the minimum time needed to complete a field strength 
reading.  The only frequency where they will run 1000W "radiated" is 
1710kHz.  On other freqs they plan to run 100W "radiated" & try to avoid 
interfering with us.
