Problem is that there are no known Cuban transmitters on 1500 and haven't been any for a good while. A surprise can always surprise us.....

The warble part is much stronger here, literally dominating the channel at times. At first, I too thought it might be local interference or QRM but after a few times listening to it, I can tell you that is not the case. It’s only audible via skywave, and seems to follow the gray line in terms of signal strength. While it’s audible well into the night (I checked against just after midnight last evening and it was still there) it’s much stronger around SSS. I’d guess somewhere in the Caribbean or Eastern US time zone (at most). Les Rayburn, N1LF Marlene, AL EM63nf Member WTFDA, IRCA, NRC.
