[MRCA] Code Wheel Mystery

[Gene Smar]

Gents:
 
     Depends on which way the wheel turns:  "PARIS" if clockwise and "SIRNP" (N = reverse of A) if counter/anticlockwise.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it may be a code flasher for an airways beacon used back in the 1920 or 1930's ? The letters are S I R N P , I think.

Here is a mystery for you CW buffs. This "code wheel" was 
posted on a MRCA member's William Donzelli eBay listing. The 
question is what are the letters or the call sign or word encoded 
on the wheel that the wheel is generating when it turns ? See attach 
photo.

BTW William often has some very interesting military comm stuff on 
his listing. His seller ID is "toober".
