This really is a weird station. I start to wonder if it is for real ....
Very unprofessional, unlike its Russian language sister S06s which seldom
screws up

Very nice catch, Daniel

Hello.

Today, 15 November 2014, starting at 1530 UTC on 10240 kHz there was one of
the craziest E17z transmissions as of late.

It started with the standard E17z voice machine repeating '274'. It stopped
after two minutes, and returned a minute later. After one minute of repeated
'274', the message began:

958 958 30 30
33796 13577 74526 46647 79302 20534 11160 43494

Then, suddenly, the carrier was switched off. It returned a minute later
with '274' repeated for one minute, then it continued from group #9 onwards:

38786 30485

Someone at E17z turned down the audio at the two last digits of the repeat
of the group '30485'. Blank carrier for two minutes, then faint E17z
returned with repeated '274', but seconds later it stopped.

Then over the next two minutes there were ~30 kHz wide tones, and a minute
later more '274' with low audio, which stopped after 30 seconds. 
It stopped, and then 15 seconds it restarted with good audio. '274' for one
minute, and groups from #11 onwards:

..... 68672 86468 38786 30485 96632 52537 53317 06675 41847
21767 53587 11834 81022 36903 41412 55676 09775 86315 25910 (! repeated as
25901 !)
05899 50387 45847 23013 89757 52343 79628 42432 54 and off again

Then, something unusual happened - we could hear microphone noises and
breathing into it, then a LIVE YL OPERATOR began repeating '274', continuing
from group #34 onwards:

23013 89757 52343 79628 42432 54577 56281
891 891 30 30 0 0 0 0 0

Note that the DK at the end was '891', as opposed to '958' given at the
beginning. Also the message was 40 groups long in total.

The same YL was previously heard on Thursday, 13 November 2014, at
0700-0710 UTC on 8100 kHz, where she tried to send a message, also with DK
'891', but stopped after two groups.

Therefore the full message was:

274 958 30
33796 13577 74526 46647 79302 20534 11160 43494 38786 30485
46062 68672 86468 38786 30485 96632 52537 53317 06675 41847
21767 53587 11834 81022 36903 41412 55676 09775 86315 25910 (! repeated as
25901 !)
05899 50387 45847 23013 89757 52343 79628 42432 54577 56281
891 30 00000

Note that the groups '38786 30485' repeat in this message.

The message groups have been heard on S06s before. These are just examples
from this year, in order. Some repeats are even "vertical".
