Hi Jim and all. I'm not an utility expert, but I'd say that there are two stations in the same frequency. "GXQ" resembles the identification that airports use, while MPL2 sounds more like a military designator. Possibly military and civil aviation are sharing the same frequency.
Just a thought...

I originally had this listed in my log as West Drayton RAF VOLMET call sign MPL2. However, the card lists what appears to be a call sign of "GXQ." My question is, what is the correct nomenclature and call sign for this VOLMET on 5450 kHz? The station was logged last March 2007. Thanks for any clarification anyone can provide.
