Vortex 596 was on Holbeach, which is the late range on Tuesday's and Thursday's. Donna opens late on Monday's and Wednesday's

Thanks for that. I didn't know the range squawks were the same. It was showing 45 miles from Grimsby and the location co-ordinates were very similar to my own, so I assumed Donna Nook.
Did put ? mark though!
Sorry anyway.

No worries mate
7002 is a general danger area squawk code so they use it in any of them
