Actually, both are wrong.  Semi-annual also means twice a year according to
Merriam and Oxford http://goo.gl/djBI2 .  

I meant biennial

Even my 59 TR3A had to be tested at one time.  I actually had to go back a
second time, as they said it was "too clean" the first time!  

Apparently the test system thought I had an exhaust leak sucking clean air
into the exhaust.  But I just re-tuned it "by the book", and it passed with
flying colors (according to the state standards for that year, of course).
