Hello J. Murphy et al,
the station you heard is definitely NOT X06, although it sounds similar -
that's trou. But X06 has breaks after the 6 tone scale, which repeats over
and over. This station is a kind of Polytone, which uses a similar system
like X06, but the tones are changing more often. But if you listen to usual
X06 recordings, you'll notice the breaks and a repeat of the scale till the
end of transmission. There are also X06 variants, which have less than 6
tones (X06b) or 3 x 2 = 6 tones like "121212" (this is X06a) or the 6-note
rising scale (X06c). Most X06 transmissions have scales from 6 different
tones. We describe them with "1" as lowest and "6" as highest tone, for
example "463125", one of the most frequently used scales of X06.
