FYI Scanners were not allowed at the last airshow and we're not on the list of banned items. I had to walk a long way back to my car after being told they were not allowed at the security checkpoint entrance.

Same with me. I kept mine out in the open on my belt trying to be honest about it. I also tried to argue the fact that it wasn't on the "banned list" on their web site. Still had to bring mine back to my vehicle. I heard others that hid theirs and got in with no problems. Might try that route this time.

I would like to see attendees lists of frequencies heard. The last update I have is 2012. Hopefully the thunderstorm alert for the county, expiring 2:30 pm, is (was) a non-event.

i loved hearing the thundersbird yesterday, but we had to leave a few minutes because of the approaching storm in the middle of the performance.

Carbineone, can you clarify who/what was on the discrete frequencies? I couldn't listen. We were in Colorado over the show weekend, dealing with 27F and 8" of global warming covering everything on the Front Range. Anyone else with other frequencies noted? Thanks.
