If I had any ULTRA from 1943, asking me might be a good idea! Unfortunately I have hardly any Luftwaffe material from before December that year. I can possibly help with a couple of the incidents in February 1944 however:
06.02.44 (VL 5731) 16.15: Siena-South attacked by 9 Mustangs without warning. One Hs 126 on fire, one Avia and DFS 230 of III./LLG 1 shot down. Comment: VL 251 gave elements of the Geschwader at Siena on 20 November.
07.02.44 (VL 5754) Luftwaffe station Siena reported at 17.00/7: Siena-South attacked by 11 Mustangs at 15.30. One Fi 156, one CANT 1007Z destroyed. Aircraft damaged included two Hs 126. Comment: information incomplete here. Date of attack not specified. For attack on 6th see VL 5680.
