They are appearing this weenkend in Beaufort (April 21 & 22) at the air show at the Marine Corp Air Station in Beaufort.

They just finished a practice session ( will list below what I heard.) Aircraft comms is standard military AM. On some I only heard half the conversation

The show usually has a lot of static aircraft display's both military and civilian, I believe a B-52 is there this yearand on a daily basis you can see various aircraft useing the facility including airforce and navy aircraft.

This is what I heard, it could change on show day:
Military air:

284.2500 Blues pilots
275.3500 Blues pilots
237.8000 pilots
251.7000 ground possibly tower
284.5000 ground
286.0000 ground
246.0500 ukn
281.8000 ukn
123.7000 I believe is a Unicom
118.445 is an every day tower freq
MCAS Crash fire Rescue is on 140.100
MCAS Strutual fire tones out on 140.6250 and ops is on Beaufort County radio Talkgroup 03664
Provost Marshal Office (MP's) 138.600 They have various other frequencies
Military dispatcher uses the call sign "Beaufort". PMO is currently using a pair of repeaters with the second in Laural Bay Housing, they are simulcasting.

So far I have heard milatary, show related traffic on Major Incident 3 on the Beaufort County system TG 05360.

On Show days the Sheriff Office and the higway patrol do a lot of road traffic managment and the Sheiff does some security on the air station.

If you go and have a truck tracker load Beaufort County, then the Sheriff channels, EMS channels, Major incident channels (last I looked on the database these where all correct) If a major incident happens it does not hurt to have the 11 Beaufort County fire ops channels and on Palmetto 800 load SCHP TG 30096 (for the Beaufort area the Control channel 868.8125.)

Local ham repeaters
146.665 no tone
145.310 no tone
443.850 tone 123

Man oh man, I miss being stationed in Beaufort. Hopefully, I can get back there by the end of this year.

I worked at the Branch Clinic on the Air Station and did coverages for the air shows. It was a lot of fun.
