Default North Western Approaches Problem

Hi everywere!!
Maybe this tread already exist but I did not find it...
My problem is that on 23/01/1940 I get an ENIGMA message that I can not translate because the letters identifying the Groups List give me result of Poseidon and not Hydra and the program doesn't make me change this data.
I'am heading for AM6144 for patrol. They are probably just patrolling informations I can not decipher.

Thanks and sorry for my english!!

P.S.: I report the message:
BDU 0259/5/10/39 18 _ TGWB WNLW AFPV ZVIO PKTV FDUD CMKL MEPJ
SQAX LMPV SIZD ONTZ CLUH DAFTADXJ TGWB WNLW.

I received the ENIGMA message when I'm on AM39 grid map.

Did you use date from the message it self in your deciphering process?
I guess this isn't the first message you're trying to decipher?

Default North Western Approaches Problem

Hi man!!
Yes, it's correct. It isn't the first message I decipher, now I'm a quite 'experienced' in the use of the machine because it as a lot of fun!!
Yes, I use the date of the message, month of October, day 5, year 39.
Actually checking the sheets that determinate the disks and pins of the machine, are shown the months of the current year (1940) and not those of '39. Can I change that date?

Thank you so much!!
