   For anybody interested, the actual encrypted message:

     BTTE UM ANGABE DES MARSQWEGES X BEFINDE MIQ IN X ROSENOW ROSENOW X SOFORT FUNKANTWORT X WASCHBBSCH
   

   which, given misspellings, translates approximately to:

     Please specify the route of march. I am in Rosenow, Rosenow. Immediate reply by radio. Waschbusch.

      Interesting. Do we know the reason why those specific messages were sent with different keys? I would imagine that there were separate keys for special high-security messages or something like that, but the almost identical content and the way the key was changed here (first only part of the configuration, then suddenly everything) makes it look more like an error or a test.
