S10 was ran by Czechoslovak military intelligence. This designator refers to the original format from mid 1970s to early 1980s. Around mid 1980s replaced by automated format S10b .

S10 utilized live voice, both male and female, and a musical intro - a taped performance of " Song of the Lark ", composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

S10 often sent more than one message in one transmission to more than one recipient. In that case, in the intro, the ID's were included for all the messages, in the same way as the first one. Then the preamble, the message and the outro except 000 followed for each message. The last message ended the transmission with 000.

S10b was ran by Czechoslovak military intelligence. Replacement for S10 . Ceased in December 1990. Later returned in 1996 as S10d .

Five electronic notes were the musical intro, in place of the piano piece (with three different variations), 3-digit schedule identifiers were added, and 3-figure recipient ID's were replaced by 5-figure ones.

The schedule ID was either 111, 222, 333, 444 or 555, and identified the currently used set of frequencies. Like S10, S10b often sent more than one message in one transmission to more than one recipient. In that case, in the intro, the ID's and the group counts were included for all the messages, in the same way as the first one. Then the preamble, the message and the outro except "Konec, konec" followed for each message. The last message ended the transmission with "Konec, konec".
