Re: [IRCA] Wobbler in North Texas



I guess it's the wobbler I'm hearing ... for the first time ... here 35 miles north of Dallas-Fort Worth. But I had expected something a little less erratic. When I tuned to 1100 at 2225, what I was hearing was strong and dominant over WTAM ... and what I heard sounded a little like rapid running back and forth of a long-play record, like the rap singers do, varying in pitch, perhaps a full octave or more from low note to high note. But I'm also hearing a second, lower pitched wobbling sound, sort of bubbling under the dominant, higher waving wobbler. As far as other audio is concerned, I'm getting only a slight bit of Latin music, not enough to tell whether it's the Cuban or one of the Mexicans. (When the Latin signal comes up, though, what I take to be the wobbler is down. I tried Monday night, found nothing, but it's there tonight. At times, it sounds a bit like "The Singing Dogs," on "Jingle Bells," (a bit squeakier) first heard when I was DJ'ing in 1955. Since my technical knowledge is minimal, I would hesitate to hazard the slightest guess as to what this is.
 
Other, that is, than annoying.
