Are the freq's fairly consistent year after year? I'd love to listen to the Air Boss and the Blue Angels

Today I have the Angels on 251.600 doing their practicing.
After practice self-critiques on 275.3500

237.800 was also used.

I was able to track them on ground radar via ADS-B/TIS-B. I took a couple screen shots that I will post later

Was at fleetweek today,

various finds on Marine Channel
Most notably Marine Channels 13,14,21

Live Cockpit Xmission on 121.050
Fleetweek Command controlling the box on 126.400

Blue Angels were using the frequencies mentioned in the Database.


Brought my newly purchased BCD436HP and my trusty DJ-X11 (European Version)

Enjoy

Thank you for sharing.

I can confirm:
Airboss: 126.40
Discreet (cockpit audio to announcer, mostly): 121.05
Blue Angels as above. They did use 251.60, listed as "BA Taxi" for A2A at times during the display, so keep it in your scan list.
Patriots Jet Team A2A: 127.30

Can add:
Post-display handover to Approach generally on: 135.10 ("Sutro VHF")

First time I've ever used the "signal sweeper" on my scanner. Was happy it helped me realize I'd written down the show boss frequency incorrectly when listening on LiveATC at work the other day!

This is what I got for yesterday. Pretty much the same as everyone else:

126.4000 Show boss
121.0500 Discrete
455.6500 PA feed

PATRIOTS
127.3000 Primary

BLUE ANGELS
251.6000 Listed as "A/A and nationwide"
237.8000 Listed as "Channel 8 Solos"
275.3500 Listed as "Channel 9 Diamond"
284.2500 Listed as "Channel 16 Show Box"

After their performance, most aircraft were handed off to Oakland Tower on 118.3, but a few were handed off to Norcal Approach (didn't get a frequency for them, I would assume 135.1)

>>455.6500 PA feed

Ah! I wish I'd thought to search for the PA feed. I was watching from up the hill on Sunday and it would have been fun to have (if I could pick it up from Lafayette Park).
