Hi all!

I have just received a message from the BdU. (It is the first day of September, 1939) In September we must use the "keyword" TEICH. Now, my first two word is EQVI and NXVG. According to the Doppelbuchstaben tauschtafel EQ = WT VI=LD NX=PK VG=IW So, my first "word" is WLPI. First letter goes to the trash, remains LPI.

And here comes the problem: According to the Gruppenliste (which we can find in the Kenngruppenbuch) LPI equals 313. The number 313 belongs to the keyword POTSDAM, while in 1939 the only keyword i can choice is HYDRA.

Is it possible, that the message was sent to an other U-boot?
