Some USMC AV-8B Harriers from North Carolina up Michigan way next couple weeks.
I think one of the last AV-8B squadrons left flying.

Chuck: I bet you will find what frequencies they use to coordinate this flight!

 

[nodak1crdet3]

ORDER 66 E-4B 747-200, 75-0125
366.600 BURN CH, just south of Toledo west bound. 11:28am.

 

[PMSCAN]

Currently hearing an EAM on 323.800 and 311.000 here in Grand Rapids. Assume it is him!

 

[nodak1crdet3]

Just heard the EAM also.
311.000 BHOGSX Stand by. Message follows.
BHOSXDV4XSS37QEVZP4YY62DQB4AW, this is TEST TEST out. 11:35am.
I thought it was Selfridge doing the EAM at first, then I saw your post. That's not Selfridge doing that.

And he is back .... heading east just south of Chicago. Still "Burning" on 366.600 WFM

 

[N9JCQ]

Dumb question. He's full scale to me here in Chicago. I have the 780XLT set to WFM but hear nothing. SHould I hear anything?

Dumb question. He's full scale to me here in Chicago. I have the 780XLT set to WFM but hear nothing. SHould I hear anything?

It should be on AM. All airband (118-137 MHz and 225-380 MHz) communications are in AM.

 

[nodak1crdet3]

It's better in AM mode. You can hear it in WFM but it's much weaker. Wish I had a radio that could do the sideband freqs.
ORDER 66 is back east bound again still on 366.600.

 

[N9JCQ]

"Test Head" on 311.00 with an EAM. I assume its Order 66 as he passes south of me in the North burbs of Chicago.
