Two MH-65 Coast Guard helicopters made a few orbits around Levi's Stadium this afternoon. I did not catch them on the scanner...

Heard two or three copters working air-air on 345.0 Mhz this afternoon. They were flying from NUQ to Half Moon Bay area. Unk who they were or where they were going.

That's a Coast Guard nationwide air ops frequency, so most likely coast guard.

I wonder how many IMSI catchers they have set up around the stadium? Probably quite a few throughout the area.

The Blue Angels made their practice pass over Levi's Stadium about 1PM today.

I had all the known BA frequencies scanning and heard the ground observers talking with the aircraft about 10-15 minutes before they were on site.

They did a slow pass, South to North over the stadium, with the observer in the end zone giving them distances to center line. Very interesting to see and hear...

These two UH-72s were hanging around for quite some time on Saturday night. Not just flying, but hovering for long periods at various points around the stadium. Not sure who or what they were looking at...
