Hearing EAMs on these frequencies as well in the 0000-0100 UTC time frame in addition to the heavy traffic heard on 11175 and the other "standard" USAF HF frequencies.

6778 USB active at exactly 0100 UTC.
6903 USB active at 0119-0120 UTC
6778 USB active with 6833 at 0122 UTC
6833 both active at 0122 UTC ZMRQ message of 4 characters follows ZMRQ I say again ZMRQ standby this is G9V out

all three of these frequencies appear to be going at the same time with different operators, sometimes transmitting the same message, sometimes not.  6778 kHz USB, 6833 kHz USB and 6903 kHz USB all going strong at 0127 UTC.   6903 USB beginning to suffer considerable QRM from Spanish language freebanders on 6905 LSB

8UV signed off at 0129 from frequency of 6903 kHz USB

6778 kHz and 6833 kHz are both active with different voices at 0150 UTC.

Each transmission appears to end with a three character callsign

The figure/character/character calls (8AY) make me think MARS units, employing their region and suffix as their callsign, as do the freqs in use. The character figure character calls (G9V) are straight NATO tactical type. The two word calls like Poker Face or Top Hand may be NCA entities, NCA meaning National Command Authority.
When you suspect something serious is going on, check these for activity; 13155 11244 8776 6697 4372 and I think 3344.
