5102.5

This morning I logged radio checks from BEARCLAW MOUNTAIN, BEARCLAW MAIN and BEARCLAW 50. Any idea who these guys are?

I wonder if it's related to this:

Milcom Monitoring Post: Baltops 09 Exercise Update 6/12/2009

UPDATE: It looks like the 2011 exercise has already happened. Looks to be a US Navy frequency however.

Had them again around 1933z. They must be relatively local to me given the time and freq.

I'm working on confirming it, but for now, my guess is an exercise at Camp Pendleton or 29 Palms.

I left the computer parked on the freq all day. Besides the radio checks I had a few brief ANDVT bursts and some ALE traffic.
Here are the ALE id's that I logged so far: AU2, BGP, BIG, S50, YUM

More activity tonight, this time on 5102 kHz
Logged ANDVT and funny ALE id: BASTARDALE and BASTA8K8ALE

lol

Hmm. Still getting ALE and secure comms on 5102.5 as well.
HAW and BGP

Perhaps 2 different nets? Interesting!

YUM makes me think it might be Yuma MCAS judging on your location and time...
