I'm going on the assumption that the Viper East Demo team will be using the freqs listed here under the heading Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon demonstration teams.

Thanks. I remember reading that earlier in the year while at working talking to a friend/co-worker about upcoming airshows.

Are you going to it? How big is this one?

yeah, has anybody been? i'm thinking about going and was wondering if it's worth fighting the crowds? thanks.

Radio checks being performed for security on 163.5375MHz. I stopped by the airport on the way home and they had about 10 C-5 there as well as a few other planes to be in the show.

My ProScan stream is up. Just look for Berkeley Co. WV. If you have or catch an active freq., post here. If I don't have it in, I will add it.

The Viper Demo Team was using 384.55 AM for air to air comms when they arrived on 9/18. They also used it during the practice sesson yesterday afternoon. See this post .

Cool, thanks. I don't do "air" for the most part. I did have that one in already. I forgot I had 123.45 locked out, might be another to monitor. From what I'm hearing, sounds like the traffic controllers are busy this morning.

Airshow Dispatch is operating on the WVIRP on TG 1157. Also traffic on 1153.

123.15MHz "Red1" doing loops and rolls. The pilot was showing Mr. Green how to do a few moves. For a sec he was a little panicky.

New TG being used for the BCSO...1155.

I think it was staged since it is the same exact audio as yesterday.

I was listening in on the airshow on proscan with the berkeley frequency for awhile and heard the "mr. green" bit as well

yeah, I guess you were listening to my stream during the airshow this weekend, I would hold on traffic when I heard something interesting.

glad you enjoy it. I use it at work to keep tabs on what's happening at home. also good to listen to when a storm is on the way from the west. I also use it at home with the laptop if things are really busy...like having a 996 out in the living room or bedroom.
