Re: [IRCA] 750 wobbler

["W. Curt Deegan" <WWWR@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Craig,

The Wobbler is frequent on 750 but it hasn't been so strong for a 
while, last August I heard it at this level.  I have it down as Radio 
Progreso, Sancti Spiritus, as best guess.

Also on tonight and even stronger is the 1100 Wobbler, a day and 
night companion down here.  There's another one on 820 which I heard 
in a quick check, but it is likely too weak to go beyond this area.

All this around 0420 UTC, Oct 17 2007.
