From 'Ken' on the MilairCommsChat Yahoo group - with minor editing by yours truly...
Well for those of you that can't make the Westfield show, there's also a
show & military base open house at Quonset State Airport, RI featuring the
Thunderbirds (6/24 & 6/25/06). (Unfortuantely, both shows -- one with the
TBirds & the other with the Blue Angels ended up being scheduled for the
same weekend, and it might be a bit challenging for most folks to attend
both shows, BUT ....) Hopefully many of you in Rhode Island & Southeastern
MA will make it to this show!!!
Rhode Island Airshow information can be found at:

2nd edition
also (posted in 2005 by Rob to the RI list):
141.80R Security
148.50 Base Medical
149.475 Fire Crash Net
Also
Basically searching the 138-144, 148-150.8 mhz area might find some new
frequencies in use
My previously monitoring notes (2003/2004 time frame) also shows the
following potential frequencies:
ON BASE RADIO SYSTEMS SUPPORT:
Security (& air show common): 141.8 Repeater/143.80 & 139.625
Fire/Crash: 149.475
Base Ops/Show Control: 148.225
Utilties Support & Comfort: 149.175
Airport Admin: 153.92 (155.04)
Medical/EMS: (probably the DMAT team on UHF 407 to 420 (search))
Misc others (potential): 139.75, 139.975, 141.625, 148.125, 148.45, 148.50,
148.55, 149.25, 149.725, 163.4625, 163.4875, 407.475, 413.125
Coast Guard Bay Security Support: 156.8, 157.15, 162.325 (other potential
157.075, 157.125, 157.05, 157.10, 157.175, 162.125, 162.25, 163.05, 163.175,
164.55)
Additionally Bill provided the following details to the former RI SCAN list
in 2004:
National Guard uses the following
138.4000 S Ch.01 Maintenance
139.7500 S Ch.02 Age
139.3750 S Ch.03 Supply
141.6250 S Ch.04 Fuel
148.1250 S Ch.05 Aerial Port Sq.
148.2250 S Ch.06 Base Ops / Ramp Control
148.5000 S Ch.07 Medical
148.5500 S Ch.08 Commanders Net
149.1750 S Ch.09 Civil Engineers
149.2500 S Ch.10 Security Police
149.2750 S Ch.11 Motor Pool
149.4750 S Ch.12 Fire/Crash
141.8000 S 151.4 Hz Ch.13 with 143.800 as the input
this is listed as "SPS Repeater" might be Security Police S....
Civilian Local/State Public Safety:
State PD: 151.505, 155.61, 154.925, 154.905, 155.445, 155.19
On Scene Parking/Traffic Control: 155.475
N. Kingstown PD: 155.58R
Fire Dept: 154.235 Repeater
Emergency Medical: 155.22, 463.075 (MED4), 463.000 (MED1), 463.10 (MED5),
463.15 (MED 7).
I especially like the Rhode Island show because the parking area has no
obstructions & the airshow narrator is broadcasted on in normal FM radio
frequency, so if you get tired on the flight line you can go back to your
vehicle and relax & still see (much of) & hear the narration of the show.
Brian (from CT) will be the Wagon Guy attending & setup on the show line at
the Rhode Island National Guard Airshow, Quonset State Airport, North
Kingstown RI this upcoming weekend.
Again depending upon what show (or both shows if you body can stand the
environmental punishment!
) this would be an excellent assembly point for
military radio communications hobbyists to at least meet at & also get a
look at the impressive scanner radios /antennas / dc power setup (mounted on
a wagon) that Brian has engineered, implemented, & refined over
the many years they attend these shows.
