Don't sleep on Marine VHF channel 16. Watched multiple motorcades crossing the Ohio Street feeder ramp a little less than an hour ago, and CPD Marine closed the North Branch of the river to all traffic as they went over the bridge.

A separate protest that is possibly turning unlawful is now near Washington and Walcott near the United Center. PH1 is hovering over there. Any TGs or Frequencies being used there?

Taboo are the tankers, Noble are the fighters. block 50 F-16s I heard. Huntress, I believe is the E-3. Think they are on 260.9. I heard them direct fighters to intercept during the RNC. 231.625 is the AR freq. I heard 270.9 given out and command and 354.075 as "scan". Whatever that is.

Wow, got absolutely blasted by one the motorcade's CREW jamming vehicles as it passed over Ohio Street just a bit ago, that was pretty cool. Wish I was recording the waterfall.

354.075 I believe is one of the Chicago departure frequencies. 353.550 is the Chicago center frequency controlling the air space.

this might be a dumb question, but how do the secret service and LEOs use their radios around those RF jamming vehicles?

Yep, 354.075 uhf side is approach tracon, paired with 119.35 vhf
Other than CG-COM and CG-TAC, here are a few other federal freqs I picked up with my analog scanner + SDR setup
164.400 Secret service, no voice, just data
I don't know if these are DNC related, but been active a bit yesterday+today
173.8875 ATF tac
163.3125 CBP investigations
173.1375 FBI chicago area
Anyone confirm if they hear anything on these and what these are possibly being used for?
Anything else in the federal band?
