Frequencies Heard Yesterday from North Sacramento County.

Performances start at Noon and go till 4 Saturday and Sunday. I'm going on Sunday.

366.7000 CF-18 Demo Team
122.475 Heritage Flights
277.700 F-22 Demo Team
123.150 Airboss or Discrete?
There are more but I was driving around picking up the kids so I couldn't setup the scanner to do a full search. Just caught these with the frequencies for Airshows in the database.
If you're going to the show, turn on Close Call for the Air Band and the MilAir (200-400) band. You should be able to hear them clearly all over Sacramento though, but if you're not at the show, Close Call probably won't work.

Post your findings here!

Previous Years airboss was 119.150 so that might be worth checking.

Did you not see anything for the USAF police and any security forces frequencies or the host of the show. Give us the good stuff

Since this thread is for the air show and not base ops it is totally understandable why the OP didn't mention ground/base system. Additionally, Mather Airport host of the show is not a military base and unlikely to have USAF police or any security forces as security, they will use local, rental, and/or airport security and police forces.

Thats correct @RaleighGuy...I live less than 1 mile from Mather Airport and most of the security/police presence was Sacramento County Sheriff.
