[RFI] Signal on 14.2 MHz

[ww3s at zoominternet.net]

 when I was in VP9 for CQWW RTTY, there was talk on the local
repeater about some type of radar causing interference, but I didn't
catch all the details....I believe someone referred to it as "ocean
mapping radar" ?!?!?!

  Hi Karin et all
 This also match with my bearing of 330 degrees from Mar Del Plata.
Intesección point of 
 the three lines is in the western part of Cuba, near Havana.
 However, I do not think it's an OTHR, at least not like anyone I
know.
