Avoid Peak Hours

Due to high user traffic, test audio may not load during peak weekday times of early mornings and early evenings. From 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 9:00 PM to 10:30 PM are the most congested times during weekdays. Weekends, midday and late evenings have less traffic. Avoid peak hours and nix needless frustration.
