[1633z+/-: ? AEA9F6 E6B launched from PAX RIVER to the Atlantic. Nothing
heard regarding the player ID; or of it checking into the net. And no HF
restoral/rebroadcast activity - perhaps the SDR used did not capture the
transmissions. After the Atlantic the flew to CLEVELAND, OH.]

1800z: EMANATION; MIPMRC; repeat (restoral/rebroadcast?) from 1657z.

[Interesting activity: The restoral/rebroadcast order is usually that out
of group of strings broadcast by the NCS, the last original string is the
first to be broadcast out of the message queue followed by the next to
last, then the next to the next last string [no more than 3 strings. But
these sessions start with an "old" string, then followed by last then next
to last strings.]
