Jamie

What was the hex code for it?

Take a look in "my log" to find it - probably doesn't have a photo as it may be either unknown, or as the callsign suggests, could be a test flight, or tactical callsign etc etc

With the hex code, it may be possible to tie it up

Regards

Where abouts in the UK are you Jamie

Are you near Warton or Yeovilton by any chance?

Probably a ground station.  In the US our ground station hex codes fall under the same allocation range as the military.  They also display TEST1234 for the ID.  Usually there is no altitude or squawk.  Other times it will show an altitude that changes all over the place.
