With former president trump making a visit to the state of New Hampshire. Especially Manchester is there any frequencies that we should monitor. I know Manchester PD is already encrypted but I’m not sure if there are more frequencies that we should be monitoring/looking for.

Thanks in advance!

NHSP will probably be active. They will likely be assisting with an escort, and closing down ramps/exits on the highway.
Also, if you're close enough try plugging in Manchester Airport tower, arrival, departure and ground frequencies.
Not sure what his call sign will be as he no longer flies Air Force 1.

@dgregjones gives some good advice, the callsign (assuming he brings his plane) will be N757 Alpha Foxtrot. I would focus on the NHSP common or statewide events channels. While encrypted, the Secret Service channels will give you a good indication of activity and they have occasionally been heard in the clear. Also, depending on your scanner don't forget to use close call/spectrum sweep.

Trump will deliver remarks at 4:00PM EST at The Armory at the DoubleTree Manchester Downtown, 700 Elm Street, in Manchester. He will probably land between 3-3:30pm.

If you monitor any traffic, please post results here after the visit, it may help others during the future election season.

I don't know about this public ADS-B stuff, I have a receiver setup myself for my own private use but I do not upload. Just don't think it's a good idea to post high profile aircraft.

BTW - if anybody in interested I can share how to disable the feed. Just PM me.

Later, Dale

Your opinions on ADSB are not the focus of this thread and seems to be an effort to hijack or derail the thread from the intended purpose of comms related to the visit.

That said, while I understand your concerns, it is tracking on numerous public sites, as do aircraft like AF1, AF2 and many others. If the operator felt it was a concern there are numerous ways they could prevent the information from publicly being broadcast and received by people across the world.

As a side note, my personal ADSB feed (which feeds multiple sites) has N757AF just south of Raleigh NC.

Closing the thread here - I was monitoring State PD, Londonderry PD, and Manchester Fire and didn't hear a thing outside of normal operation. If they were simplex I'm likely too far away. I did not bother trying the Secret Service frequencies outlined earlier.

I did, however, hear the plane as it came in to land so at least I got something.
