Well, it isn't as if convoy sailing dates were totally random. B-Dienst did identify the sailing dates of some convoys, and Donitz directed U-boats to intercept. I don't have my copy of Blair's Hitler's U-Boat War on me right now, but I'm certain that this did occur on more than one occasion.

If you tuck in the word "due" after "Liverpool" it makes sense....doesn't it?
The reason Australia and other nations locked up foriegn nationals was some (albeit very very few) actually were spies. The message could have come from the port of departure for the price of a couple of beers in Woolloomooloo pub and then been radioed in.

The Sydney in the convoy report is located in Nova Scotia. However, I'm sure the beers part still applies tho.
