OK, go to www.enigmaworldcodegroup.com/m4-advanced-procedure There you will find everything you need for TRITON M4 Advanced and HYDRA M4 Advanced procedures. You will also find several translated manuals that cover almost the entire set of actual procedures used by the Kriegsmarine during WWII. There is the Short Message Procedure (Kurzsignale) that I am finishing and when we publish, Bruce Culp and I will put it on the website just like the rest of the manuals and code sheets.

Don't feel like quoting... Here's my thought... we have procedures and we have codesheets. Procedures are for the M3, the M4 Basic, and M4 Advanced. M4 Basic has a set of 12 bigram tables (based on the calendar) and directions on using the codesheets. The M4 Advanced has a set of 10 bigram tables and the calendar days to use which, along with the K-book and other things that let you indicate which codesheets to use. But for the M4, is there a real difference between the actual codesheets based on the procedures? So why can't we have a Triton, a Hydra, and a Thetis set of codesheets. If you're using the M4 Advanced procedure, you use those bigram tables and the key indicator group tells you which codesheet to use. If you use the M4 BASIC procedure you use those Bigram tables but you have to say which codesheet to use... EWCG2018TRITON, EWCG2018HYDRA, EWCG2018THETIS tags before the message. One set of codesheets for the radio net, which can be used with either the basic or advanced procedure. K-Book only comes in to play in the advanced procedure, where you just tag the message with EWCG2018ADV. So now you have THREE different M4 options with the basic procedure instead of just one. Three sets of codesheets (one for each net) and two sets of bigram tables (one for each procedure) for the M4. Does that make sense?? Seems the most flexible yet less prone to mistakes.

ericgermannavylover , All pretty good. However,to do the M$ Advanced procedure you MUST have the Kenngruppenbuch. It defines the trigraphs AND the bigrqm tables to use. Absolutely no problem for TRITON, HYDRA, or THETIS code sheets. In your images, you might not that the M4 codes were changed every other day, but we set the M$ to be a daily key change since later that is what was done. Your leftmost sheet is a Offizier codesheet and there are those available as well. Now that I am doing the website, all the code books for each radio net will be together on the web site to download. Still working that but you will have everything available in 2019.
