[MilCom] MIL: 11175.0 - BEE BREAD

[Jeff Haverlah]

0847z  28 Oct 04

      8992.0.0 was active at 0710z with MCCLELLAN bcsting a 163-character 
EAM (AGXBZR).  There may have been co-channel player activity under 
MCCLELLAN but the player(s) (if that's what they were) were very weak and 
mostly unheard/unreadable.

      11175.0 was active at 0720z (after the completion of MCCLELLAN's 
xmsn) with BEE BREAD (fair but often fading to near unheard levels) bcsting 
AGXBZR and simulcasting same on at least 8992.0 (fair but often fading to 
unheard levels) with nothing heard on 15016.0.

      11175.0 was active at 0740z with BEE BREAD (weak/readable with deep 
fading) bcsting AGZBZR and simulcasting same on at least 8992.0 (weak/deep 
fading) with nothing heard on 15016.0  H+10/h+50 activity.

      11175.0 was active at 0804z with BEE BREAD (fair to weak/barely 
readable; qsb) bcsting a 216-character EAM (AGH32X; distinctive formatting) 
followed immediately with AGXBZR, and simulcasting same on at least 8992.0 
(fair/weak).

      At 0825z 8992.0 was active under BEE BREAD with [too weak to id; weak 
to briefly fair levels; qsb] bcsting AGJ32X and AGXBZR. (They are not using 
the character count statement to conclude the longer string.)

Longer EAM strings of the past 13 hours:

1850z AGSJYY  33 characters
2134z AGCN45 148 characters (distinctive formatting)
0013z AGYHTA 163 characters
0320z AGDIM3  48 characters (distinctive formatting)
0710z AGXBZR 163 characters
0804z AGH32X 218 characters (maybe; fumbled char count; distinctive format)

On a hunch...
There's a repeated subset of characters found in both 163-character EAMs 
(AGYHTA and AGXBZR) but at different locations within each string (and with 
a few character variations).

AGYHTA:  ...PRZYZPKROO6OY3T8HPHRFLMOGOSYQR... (early in the string)
AGXBZR:  ...O6LEP7KROO6OR3T7HPHVFLMOGOHYPL... (near end of the string)

And re AGH32X..

It contained repetitive characters that appear to follow this format 
(starting 36 characters into the string)...

xx[4 character block]xx[15 character block]xx[4 character block]xx[15 
character block]xx..etc... (where xx can be any 2-element single character 
group), repeated until 12 characters from end of string.
