Air National Guard

[hightime]

Anyone else hear the Air Guard on Wiscom today? Picked them up off the Fence Tower on Talkgroup 8498. Radio IDs 849090,849095, &
8409129. I don't know if it's training or the real deal but they were talking of a downed aircraft.

849090 and 849095 would not be compliant. Did you mean 8409090 and 8409095? Those and 8409129 would be compliant with WI ANG. Some others I've figured out in the 8400000-8499999 range:

84000XX's WEM (unit numbers are in 84XX's) (mobile or portable?)
84090XX's-84091XX's WI ANG (mobile/portable/aircraft?)
84177XX's WEM (unit numbers are in 84XX's) (mobile or portable?)
84196XX's 128th ARW Fire Department @ KMKE
8430000 Wisconsin State Emergency Operations Center (EOC) in Madison, often ID's as "KGT483"

Yea, you are right I missed the 0's on the RID's

I am located near Marinette but was not at home at the time and didn't have any logging enabled locally. However, I do have a couple
of instances on OP25 running at Oshkosh and Green Bay where I did find log entries for TG 8498 that occurred yesterday, May 2, 2022, to
suggest the ANG TG is perhaps multicast over a wide area of the state.

There wasn't anything on the Green Bay TV news this morning about a downed aircraft, so it was possibly a training exercise that would make
sense being the ANG did have one go down up in Delta County, Michigan not all that long ago! That incident did produce a lot of radio
communications for about a week on the MPSCS that I was able to monitor remotely out of Manistique.

Shown below is the Talkgroup entry for the ANG as it appeared in the OP25 log pulled from Oshkosh
(Chilton Tower) followed by the RID's involved in those communications exchanges.
