0D0355, registration XA-MEX, sending ASSTETS

One wonders if the final "TS" is inverted or if the "E" was supposed to be an "I".

Those are ground stations.  There are four at KIAD that I receive.  They belong to the FAA, so I would imagine yours belong to the Australian equivalent of the FAA which I'm not familiar with.

Camber has started in earnest. Soon it won't be unusual.

Currently on the Tain Range at 200ft, a Tornado GR4 with the callsign "MR ON".   Captain Scarlet I presume.

EDIT: Now changed to "MR 01" :(

The second one of thets that I've spotted - no idea what type of aircraft it is - it was at FL230 when I saw it, and the registration down't really tally with anything sensible that I can find.

It wouldn't tally with anything sensible, as it's wrong :-)

A82D3F equates to N626HJ, which is an N-number change for FA50 msn 180, previously N50SF.

I have no idea where AirNav got N6231B from - that's a Quad-City Challenger, by the way.

That makes more sense, Dave. The Quad City Challenger looks like a lovely little plane (didn't know about them before I looked it up on the FAA register), but I couldn't really see it cruising at FL330, which is the highest it got to before it went out of range while heading towards Vegas.
