Monopole-antimonopole pairs connected by strings can be formed as topological defects in a sequence of cosmological phase transitions. Such hybrid defects typically decay early in the history of the universe but can still generate an observable background of gravitational waves. We study the spectrum of gravitational radiation from these objects both analytically and numerically, concentrating on the simplest case of an oscillating pair connected by a straight string.
