Chuck, thanks also. I did have most of these programed and was able to add quite a few. Plus labeling many of the freqs in my ScanControl software controlling the 895XLT helps, nice job. Regarding your comment last week about 261.5 and noise. I have had that happen on occasion. Yesterday and Monday the same thing happen just after the fighters cleared Steelhead on "261.2". The open squelch that lasted for over an hour and then went clear again. Very strange...

Wow that's awesome. Only 15 miles from the range. I haven't been up there in years to hear the range talk. It's pretty cool. A-10 gun passes are awesome also. Sounds like one really loud burp! :D

I'd like to find someone who lives nearer Alpena who monitors during night hours heard they operate drones out of the base there. Also have had family that saw a convoy of usaf trucks on m-32 headed west with flatbed trucks with blk ATV's an a huge offshore type cigarette boat under a tarp in that convoy???????? Is that maybe blk opps border patrol being moved for winter storage?

Heads up not exactly Mil but NASA-809 the ER-2 is scheduled out your way Thursday morning.
Should be easy to copy at FL-650 on local VHF ATC. Has been working out of Pope AAF the last few weeks
doing wx experiments.
NASA-426 P-3 out of Wallops will work the lower altitudes at about the same time.

The NASA-426 P-3 Orion aircraft (N426NA) has been flying out of the Wright Patterson Air Force Base (KFFO) the past couple of days.

If anyone cares, Willow Run is getting many cargo flights ranging from Mexican to Canadian to U.S. Cargo companies, due to the border being closed between the U.S. and Canada. Some interesting radio transmissions have been heard between tower and aircraft.
Ground=119.975
Tower=125.275
