It was the Cuban station and it was the 11540 khz that caught my attention. I bracketed 10khz either side of 11540 and the signal went from weaker to nothing.  Ditto USB. 
Same degree of signal capture with either the FRG7700 or R75.
I just wrote it off as, "Well, you know,  its Cuba...."

Getting hit pretty good now here in East Troy WI.   Looking at 6-8" tonite with low visibility and gusts increasing to 25-30  mph tonite creating drifting especially in the rural hours.
1st good blow of the season.
