Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] 1500khz someone with very noisy sidebands

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.....

If you're hearing "warbling," then it's highly likely to be a Cuban transmitter... this sort of thing has been noted off and on for years on various frequencies.

Brett,

That is nearly exactly what I’m hearing here near Birmingham. 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).
