Anyone able to catch any unique frequencies from the practices?

Blues? Other Performers? Air Boss Freq and Discreet Comms?

I have several but I'm seeing if anyone else out there has something as I was not able to get. I've been doing a lot of digging as well on the other sub forums and what not. Thanks!

If you're reading this and would like me to share what I found today let me know. I think listeners at shows are a rarity today but I loved it. Air Boss was very active.

Blue Angels @ Fargo Air Sho 2018

All blues frequencies were posted already publicly that I found in heavy use and I labeled them so in my scanner, I put in all that I could find potentially in use this year and had great success monitoring. I will also include hits for each.

Found Freq's Here:
Abbotsford International Air Show Frequencies - CQCQ.ca - Canadian Amateur Radio forum Canada - Canadian Ham Radio forum Canada
https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?aid=7836

*237.8000 Solos Out of Box - very active and funny chatter. Ref show box for when they are in the box but they immediately switch out. CHANNEL HITS: 271

*246.5000 Comm 20 - negligible if anything CHANNEL HITS: 0

*251.6000 Show Box - used very little CHANNEL HITS: 24

*255.2000 Start Up Checks - negligible if anything CHANNEL HITS: 0

*265.0000 Diamond Ops - CHANNEL HITS: 0

*275.3500 Diamond Out of Box - heavy usage for the diamond outside of the show box CHANNEL HITS: 292

*284.2500 Show Box - used during the demo for solos and diamond CHANNEL HITS: 318

*289.8000 Air Refueling - nothing all weekend

*305.9000 Fat Albert 1 - negligible if anything, bert didn't fly CHANNEL HITS: 0

305.5000 Fat Albert 2 - negligible if anything, bert didn't fly CHANNEL HITS: 0

*346.5000 Comm 18 (Start) - negligible if anything CHANNEL HITS: 0

*362.6000 Aerial Ops- negligible if anything CHANNEL HITS: 0

*142.1625 Ground Alpha (CTCSS 67.0) - Only really used right before the show, I struggled to get these to come in clearly my weekend but was only using the duck that came with my pro-651. CHANNEL HITS: 22

*139.8125 Ground Bravo (CTCSS 67.0) - Active a decent amount during the airshow day, likely their main comm channel. I struggled to get these to come in clearly my weekend but was only using the duck that came with my pro-651. I could hear chatter but it was tough to get anything really. CHANNEL HITS: 42

*141.5625 Ground Charlie - negligible if anything CHANNEL HITS: 0

*123.1000 VHF 1- negligible if anything CHANNEL HITS: 1

*123.4000 VHF 2- negligible if anything CHANNEL HITS: 2

*124.8900 VHF 3- negligible if anything CHANNEL HITS: 0

MISC FREQ'S:

*125.125 Air Boss: -pretty much used for all comms and airshow coordination, I don't think there is a discreet freq that I am aware of. I signal stalked often. CHANNEL HITS: 86 (low because it doesn't include ba practices and I didn't need to have it on all weekend really)

*127.350 Minneapolis Center ATC - Signal Stalked CHANNEL HITS: 23

*129.450 Jump Fargo (skydiving) unsure - Signal Stalked CHANNEL HITS: 58
