Response from OregonAirShow.com

Summarizing; Oregon Air Show doesn't share frequencies that are already posted on their web site. Waiting on explanation from Oregon Air Show.

Assorted air to air frequencies can be found here, Frequencies for General Aircraft Listening

Tower is 119.3 mhz.

No response from Oregon Int'l Air Show about policy of not sharing frequencies later discovered on their web page. No worries, seems customer service and public relations aren't a priority. Enjoy the show :)

Writing up a wiki article would be the best way to keep a list of freqs used from year to year. Yell if someone wants to do that, and needs help...Mike

I'm a former assistant airboss at the show and hope you'll cut them some slack:) It's mostly a volunteer run outfit and they get pretty busy. You may have reached a volunteer who was erring on the side of caution about releasing freqs. The comm freqs listed by another poster should get you most of the chatter, but you may need to search around a bit for the T-Birds as they sometimes change things up.
