I've never heard XPA. That is so weird to me. What the hell is it?

It's a multitone station the Russians use along with their voice & morse spy stations.  If you run the audio through any MFSK-20 decoder it will give you the 5 figure groups.  The thinking behind this mode is that the recipient has equipment that is set to 'come on' when the XPA tx begins, hence the 'A' part of the name for automated.

Thanks scagnettie2.0 :)  Here are some of my other XPA logs from last week....it's tx sched. is mostly Tue. & Thur. UTC.  I use scheduling software with my receiver to catch these guys in the middle of the night & then edit down the audio files later.
