I looked at multiple messages on that website and the pattern seems to be triple letters are for single letters and abbreviations. My theory is because if you get a letter wrong in a word and "possible" becomes "possifle" then it is still intelligible, but if "u five one four" means u-boat 514 and you get the U wrong, then it could end up as A514 and mean something airplane 514, so to be safe the letter u gets transmitted thrice.
