For several nights I've heard this transmission with CW on 1832 kHz:
3 × (M1 + a 3 second dash). Sometimes every third minute for up to
25 minutes. Last night I only heard same transmission occasionally.

Is this the Drift Net Beacons now reached European (Scandinavian)
waters?   In the Philippines we hear them all the time...
