On each schedule, an M03c message would have been sent on one random week of each month. The messages were never shorter than 30 groups, and never longer than 39. M03 messages sent from mid-2008 onwards also have the same group count constraint, but no longer contain "77777" groups - however similar groups are still present in its digital counterpart, POL FSK.
Voice equivalents, E11b and S11b, appeared in August 2003 and March 2006, respectively.
