Currently active on 6.825MHz and 3.881MHz simultaneously, sending mixed 5 figure groups.

Apparently it was once thought to be a numbers station for clandestine ops, but is really a CW practice station for both amateurs and the French military. Then again, if I was in charge of a numbers station, I might well tell folks it was intended for CW practice...


Very strong signal into the UK, and likely readable for our American cousins at times. Perfect machine sent morse. Worth a listen for practice.

The French CW society, Union Française des Télégraphistes has a very good website - in French, naturally, but the translate facilities on your web browser will handle it.
