XPA2, 13538 USB, 10 OCT 2017, 15:40 UTC

This is the broadcast on the Sunday/Tuesday schedule, also referred to as "XPA2 m" in the Enigma 2000 newsletter. As noted before, it is often a very strong copy here in the USA. I copied it on my Grundig Satellit 750 receiver using just its built in antenna. Video here:

Message sent, decoded using the Rivet java applet (build 90) after uploading video to youtube (which is why the time is given at 10:11, which is my local time).
