USCG on Marine 83A (157.175).
Air Boss 135.650
Show Discrete 136.575 (or maybe that was just a civilian performance)
Thunderbirds 235.250 formation (was solos last year)
Thunderbirds 149.650 solos (was formation last year)
Golden Knights 123.475 air-to-ground
NJANG 177th 261.000 (I caught some activity there at about the time they did their flyby, and it's one of their channels, but I can't 100% confirm it was them and its use)
I also caught traffic on 255.000 and 242.400 but not sure of user nor content.

I see the schedule has changed since I last checked -- 136.575 was the "HORSEMEN" P-51 Mustang demonstration (2 ships).
It would still be worth listening to during other acts, in case it is a show discrete channel and not just that Mustang team.

242.4 is NJNG helicopters primary (and some other states also)

Follow-up for posterity/ reference next year:
USCG Tac Com on Marine 83A (157.175), coordinating the exclusion zone. Also a bit of related official activity on 16 (156.800) and 23A (157.150), plus the usual recreational "boaters" (to put it undeservingly nicely, in some cases) on various other marine channels.
Air Boss 135.650 (David Schultz Airshows)
Show Discrete 123.150 (used by Kyle Fowler, Patrick McAlee, & Scott Francis)
Golden Knights 123.475 air-to-ground
USCG 345.000 MH-65 demo air-to-air
Horsemen 136.575 (2-ship P-51 demo including Jim Beasley)
Thunderbirds 235.250 formation, 149.650 solos. Alas their show started about 2 hours late and was abbreviated due to weather.
NJANG 177th (F-16s) & 108th (KC-135) -- I never found the channel they used among the F-16s or to the KC-135 for that formation. I got hits on 138.200, 255.000, & 261.000 but it seemed to be after their fly-bys so it may have just been them heading back to base.
I didn't catch 242.400 today. I got something on 40.100 (saved as NJArNG UH-60s) but their SPIES/FRIES demo didn't end up as a part of the show, there wasn't any military rotorcraft other than the USCG MH-65s.

You mentioned 40.100, do you mean 140.100? I am only asking because I do have 140.100 in my notes as NJ ANG. However, nothing in my notes under 40.100.

About 10 years ago a NJ Army National Guard UH-60 pilot told me they use(d) 40.1. I seldom have an opportunity to scan them so I haven't verified it myself. When they said "40.1" they may have actually meant 140.100, but it was in the context of the NJ Army National Guard UH-60s and not the NJ Air National Guard. I was also scanning 140.100 for NJANG 119th but didn't catch anything there during the air show.

Oh ok. I do recall a few posts over the years of folks capturing mil air comms in NJ briefly in the 40 MHz band, but I never personally picked up anything in that band.
