[IRCA] brief wobbler on 590



>Wobblers are medium on 750, weak on a very weak 960 carrier (Woowoo),
very weak on 1120.

Driving back from S.C. last night. (Techno-Security 2005 conference).
I was listening to 590 just as it was getting dark. For some
reason I am noticing that lots of Cubans e.g. 570, 590, 620, 640, 670,
710, 770 are being hrd in central Fla very well for about a half hour
centered around 2100 EDT, at the same time domestics such as
Miami 560 and 610 are nonexistent. I was listening to piano mx
from Havana on 590 when a wobbler burst on the freq at 2111
but it only lasted 10 seconds!! and then was gone, but it was atop
the channel for those 10 seconds. It was so strong that I was
unable to tell if it replaced the 590 mx, or just covered it, but it
disappeared as fast as it appeared and the 590 mx was left as
it was before. A half hour later I had wobbler on 930 but it was
just at detectability, but it ran for several minutes at least.

As a side note of somewhat lesser importance I discovered that
the meaning of the call WVLG on 640 is the "villages" which they
constantly refer to. They seem to serve the Ocala-Sumter-Leesburg
area, with semi-schmaltzy adult nostaglia, per ads heard.

It's a bit odd to have the bottom of the dial be predominantly
Cuban with little else copiable. for those several minutes.
