R4002:
Very nicely done research Exo :D

So these marine operators that switch between CW on 4101.3 kHz and SSB on 4100 kHz have a fairly regular daily schedule?

--- End quote ---

Recently, they have appeared on 4100 USB / 4101.4 CW / 4101.3 CW every day at 0530 UTC.
They have been heard around 0525 UTC auto-tuning their antenna with some CW dashes, and then V, V, V, before the sked.
Sometimes they go immediately to USB voice, and other times they have a short CW exchange.
They have recognizable quick fists on CW, using the free form style of a bug (long dash emphasis) and sometimes a straight key.
On voice, using an Asian language, they are noticeably older males, who laugh and tell long stories or sometimes rant.
They seemlessly go back and forth between USB voice and CW.
They have been heard as late as 0700 UTC on this frequency.

On CW, one of the stations transmits on 4101.3 kHz and the other is on 4101.4 kHz.

They are not using Japanese Wabun Code.
