Bletchley Park (WWII Code Centre) Collosus code breaking event

To celebrate the completion of the Colossus Mk 2 there will be an event on 15/16 November in which a series of messages will be enciphered on a WWII Lorenz cipher machine and transmitted using 'six tone' RTTY from the Heinz Nixdorf Computer Museum in Paderborn, Germany.

The challenge is for anyone to break the cipher settings and decipher these messages before the Rebuild of WW II Colossus Mk 2 in Bletchley Park does it.

The local amateur Club station - Milton Keynes Amateur Radio Society - which is based at Bletchley Park has already been involved in making test transmissions with the Heinz Nixdorf Computer Museum.
