Gregg,
Thanks for the info. Will add it to my scanner for next trip your way.

MADDOG 01 single ship A-10 just switched 363.2 ZKC Salina. Probably on his way to the range. You should be able to hear him now.

Most of the ZKC freqs you could probably hear with an outdoor antenna.

I was looking at the Skip Propagation and the next few days will be good for VHF and UHF. Mine will be on the 9th

Not sure what is going on at my location but me and my rubbie duckie antenna are not picking anything up tonight.

thats the problem right there, If you can go to the shack and get a telescopic antenna and a pre-Amp( that you can get from GRE america)

Look it is the man who took on the WPD and won.

If I have to go buy and additional antenna and a pre-amp, it seems like it is no fun any more.

How far are you from the bombing range?
20 miles or so?

 

[Buckskinner33]

If you get anything the Telescopic antenna will help. I have one on my
VX-7R. It great for AIR channels (the VX-7 has continuos coverage)

 

[rick521]

I suppose the bomb range is from 15 to 30 miles, depending on what part of the range you are going to.

Will that antenna work on a BC250?

On my 2052, I just have the stock telescoping antenna and I am hearing them fine. I am in the basement surrounded by concrete. South Central part of Salina. About 10 mins ago I heard them say "thanks for the training" so I don't know if they are done for the night or not.

I just heard one transmission. It is about time.
