CONTENET:

	1. Polish Navy before 1945
	2. Polish Navy after 1945



OVERVIEW:
		Two distinct periods can be seen here, pre war and post war Polish Navy. 
		Post war Polish Navy was much bigger fleet, but always was small Navy
		on small Baltic Sea. 




======================
1. PRE 2WW POLISH NAVY 
======================

	Short operational characteristic of PN's radiocommunication before 1939 can be found in [1]. 
	It was small fleet.	


	QRA PREFIX: ORP

	CALLSIGN SYSTEM: 	Tactical callsigns, 3 element, first element always P or Z 
				Fixed callsign for HQ. Ships changing last 2 elements sesonally. 
	QTC FORMAT: 		5F only, QTC serial number number: 2 figures only. 
	OPERATIONAL NOTES:	duplex network  		
	FREQS:			Original range was 2.9-5.5 MHz, frequencies were changed sesonally 
				(not simulated here). Exact freqs are assumed.


	FREQ:
				=====================
				|FQ     NET	REM | 
				=====================
				2901	SHIPS	NIGHT	
				3003	HQ	NIGHT 
				4106	SHIPS		
				4939	HQ	
				5101	HQ	DAY 
				5371	SHIPS	DAY	
				=====================


	CALLSIGNS:		
				P$$	HQ
				Z$$	HQ
				P$$	Naval Vessel ($ - latin letter)
				Z$$	Naval Vessel ($ - latin letter)

				Callsigns generated  dynamically. No ships or fixed callsigns defined.


	OTHER:			Code book MAR-3 was used to cypher. Format 4F. Regrouped to 5F
				for transmiting. 




=======================
2. POST WAR POLISH NAVY 
=======================


	After 2WW PN has been used standarised Wasaw Pact tactical callsigns for coded radio 
	exchanges, as all branches of military in WP. ITU callsigns assigned to ship could be 
	used very rarely and only for navigational purposes.


	QRA PREFIX: 		ORP
	TOTAL SHIPS: 		42 
	CALLSIGN SYSTEM: 	Tactical callsigns only, 4 element, Warsaw Pact Standard
				Assumed callsigns. No changing c/s while changing freq simulated. 
				International callsigns used only for navigational purposes (MF)
	QTC FORMAT: 		5F only, Warsaw Pact Standard 
	OPERATIONAL NOTES:	duplex network  		
	FREQ RANGE:		1.6-15 MHz, freqs were sesonal (simulated by odd-even months on some freqs)
	OTHER:			period 1945 - 1989
