Fapsi [X06 / M42]

Only four logs:

5081 kHz	msg at 1818 UTC on unid link.
8105 kHz	Mazielka call at 2000 UTC, followed by a morse callup to "URO" and a RTTY message on link 60047.
11460 kHz	msg at 1637 UTC on link 60047.
14815 kHz	Mazielka call at 1330 UTC.

I received an interesting note from Central Europe. Our friend heard the following on 12 September at 1055 UTC on 19331 kHz in Morse:

10:55	VVV WSK WSK WSK 1/3TT
10:58	NW NW 111TT TTT64 12345 12T18 T3TT9 = = 84864 7T412 1577T ...../ (morse machine) ..... 58251 33644 56845 = = QRU QRU SK SK (manual morse)

What makes this log interesting is that it looks very much like the diplo transmissions in the pre-FAPSI time when morse was often used. Could this be related???

Here is a sample of on old morse transmission:

VVV PSN PSN PSN 2/245 VVV PSN PSN 2/245
NW NW NR 271 GR 135
followed by 5L or 5F groups

Jammers
