Thanks for the explanation.
Searching for this matter, I found the following info. It's the first message, by Joe, K1JT:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/linrad/rLY4Y4StAbw
I am not sure, a test with 'jt65code.exe' shows, 'JT65 v1' coding is in use in WSJT-X.
a message "CQ 3D2R/OE1MWW RH97"
Packed message v1 coding 6-bit symbols: 62 32 32 49 38 36 53 42 54 52 5 31
will be sent as "CQ 3D2R/OE1MWW"
and
a packed message in v2 6-bit symbols: 62 35 7 40 18 36 53 42 54 48 1 13
will be sent as "CQ 3D2R/OE1MWW RH97"
73's de OE1MWW
