SIMULATION:

	At the moment only coast stations are simulated, plus NATO BROADCAST carried via portuguese stations. 
	Looking for more info. Occasional some static ships ITU callsign calling logged by SWLs. 
	Tactical callsign are used only in broadcasts (see NATO_BROADCAST with Pxxx indicator for more info.) 	

	2 databases are established: old and new ships, because old (colonial) fleet was much bigger and more CW active.
	Moreover old callsigns were reassigned for new ships. Old ships are 1930s-1950s ships. 




REMARKS:

	If you have more info on procedures of Portuguese Navy pls help: h f 8 v @ i n t e r i a . p l
	I found many loggings of PN activity since 1960s but I dont know for example which freq where 
	used in ships to shore network and which for broadcasts only. Coast stations were very active 
	and many carried NATO broadcasts.
