A few years back, the localiser at TBPB had a false lobe about 4 to 5 miles north of the localiser. Several reported cases of APPR Mode being armed too early (Dash 8s) and the aircraft trying to intercept the localiser midway down the west coast of Barbados (airport on the south coast).
Haven't heard anything recently, so they may have sorted it out.
