Lots of Huntress on 260.9. Heard quite a lot of traffic on 121.5 - fighters advising planes to immediately vacate the area, flying in restricted FAA airspace - very cool comms.

Was the President in your area today? When the president was last in my area I heard alot of comms on 121.5 basically just like what you heard. I didn't have any NORAD freqs at that time, I wish I had. But, yeah it is definately cool when you hear those communications.

No problem hearing the jets in nearby Cleveland.
