Re: [HCDX] Strange Noise on 1000



These ``wobblers`` from Cuban transmitters have been reported for many years on many different frequencies by North American DXers in MW groups. according to Brett`s theory. Nothing to do with solar activity (except possibly enhancing southern signals). 73, Glenn Hauser

     Sounds to me that you could have heard some solar noise,
 solar
     activity has been high during the past week. The noise
 sounded
     similar to what I heard on the FM band beck in the 80s
 during a
     period of high activity.
 
     Here is a space weather link to activity on 27 June
 (UTC)
     http://www.spaceweather.com/archive.php?view=1&day=26&month=06&year=2015
     depending on whether the time you quoted was local or
 UTC there
     might be a tie in. The piece that could be relevant is
 below the
     blue image.

       CUBA?? 1000 Apparently one of the Cuban stations,
 R. Granma
         or R. Artemisa here with a strange effect on the
 carrier
         sounding like either a Rap DJ doing a
 "turntablism" or someone
         warping a hand saw. Noted intermittently from
 0915-1000, but
         best heard around 0916 and 0927. Brett Saylor
 mentions the
         theory is that a power fluctuation in the grid is
 causing the
         transmitter carrier to "wobble".
 Here's a video of what it
         looks/sounds like https://youtu.be/6Ww3CnCS2LU
