As is the case with other portions stated in the contract, I'm certain those frequencies are "indefinite". Of course they may be published for all to see after the system is operational (NOT) ;-)

I'm curious as to why the West Coast station wasn't included.

I am assuming that is an error of omission in that public notice. I am pretty sure the RFI for this effort went out in Feb of 2021 and if this is indeed the same contract that RFI did include Beale in the original description.

T!

Did they move the HF station from McClellan? Long ago when I was active duty, that was the "west coast" HF (GHFS) station and Tech Control Facility (TCF) to PACAF...for the USAF - Stockton was the Navy TCF to PacFleet as that point in time too
