A few comments on Pete's logs:
<<
690 - Thought I heard ?W radio? 12/3 2205 from south of PR but nothing matches.
>>
W Radio: Bogota, Colombia - usually // 700 from Cali
<<
720 - UNID 12/2 10am EST. Spanish. Probably Cuban Progresso but no ID at TOH
>>
Or R. Norte (Dominican Republic) or Emisoras Unidas (Colombia)
<< 750 >>
Caracas is even knuckle-busting here on Cape Cod.
<< 890 >>
D.R. has been about 110 Hz high of nominal for a long time. Growl against 890 Progreso most nights here.
<< 900 >>
Either Maracaibo, Ven. or Progreso Cuba typical on 165-deg. SuperLoop. Barbados cannot be radiating much this way. Had been a lead-pipe cinch in this area 20+ years ago.
<< 940 >>
What about WIPR, P.R.? Common enough here. RCN Colombia also frequently heard. Brazil occasional ... didn't see any Brazil or Argies in your report.
<< 1090 >>
Ven. // 640 in a reception not too long ago. Minor time difference ~3 sec.
<< 1200 >>
R. Tiempo occasionally in under domestics.
Quite a few stations you've listed show up as audio clips received here via the following links:

http://www.qsl.net/wa1ion/doc1/audio_aug_to_dec2015.htm
http://www.qsl.net/wa1ion/doc1/audio_march2015.htm
Might be handy for DXers interested in this area.
Any evidence of TA's down there Pete?
I've listened a couple of times on the Bonaire SDR and noted a few TA's but not as good as here in eastern MA.
Did you grab any audio clips to post online?
