Hello list,

Below is a message I received from a friend from France,
he says he caught this EAS broadcast and believes it's
the real deal but his marine teletype equipment failed on
him while decoding.  Fortunately he managed to record the
whole thing.  The original and his decoding attempt are
attached below.

Can you help?

Best,
Josh

Salut Josh,

J'espère que ça va ? J'ai reçu ce message EAS bizarre sur
mon terminal tout à l'heure, j'ai essayé de le décoder et
ça s'est arrêté d'un coup. Je te mets ce que j'ai réussi
à avoir et le message original que j'ai enregistré par
chance. Ca a l'air sérieux...

Tu peux demander aux ham-lovers ?

Merci d'avance,
Phil
