Curious to hear what you get. We didn't get nearly as much as previous years. Radio traffic was pretty light. No FA this year for whatever reason.

Some older freqs mixed in there. Here are the normal presets, confirmed in June during their morning radio checks:

3B: 139.8125 (67.0) Maintenance
3A: 142.6125 (67.0) Comm Cart
08: 237.800 Solo
09: 275.350 Diamond
10: 305.500 Ops
16: 284.250 Diamond

289.800 is their AR freq, but probably won’t be heard at the show site.
