[CQ-Contest] Tuff Copy

A few weeks ago I noticed I similar signal on 40M shortly before the start of an 0300Z CWT, starting around 7032 and going up.
Later during the CWT it seemed to have disappeared - I wonder if it decided (if it indeed was OTHR) that it would be easier on a channel without so much QRM.

I was one of the ops on 15M at K3LR.

Both mornings we noticed a broad signal, maybe 25 kHz wide, with the
typical OTH radar signature on the band scope. I recall at one point it was
around 21375. We were beaming Europe. No idea which country it was coming
from.

I did not listen to its audio...I was a bit busy lower in the band and it
was not bothering us there.
