This work presents results of test series, performed for earlier on designed and successfully fabricated silica few-mode microstructured optical fibers (MOF) with six GeO2-doped cores, induced twisting 100 revolutions per meter, typical "telecommunication" outer diameter 125 µm, core diameter 8.7 µm, air hole diameter 4.6 µm, pitch 7.2 µm, and core quasi-step / graded refractive index profiles with height 0.0360 / 0.0275, respectively. Part I introduces attempts for *
