Three A-332 tankers MMF30 (T-055), MMF31 (T-054) and MMF32 (T-061) departed from Eindhoven airport [EHEH]
to Salt Lake City [KSLC] this morning. They will drag the 12 Dutch Air Force F-35s from Mountain Home AFB back
home and will probably nightstop at Burlington IAP [KBTV] again tomorrow.
Maybe they will check out Falls back Eastbound this time :)

Just curious @kc2asb what is so funny about POTUS schedule and the update post on weather update confirming he was using M1?
Only the golf part. Maybe it should be GOTUS :) I appreciate the information you share, and that of everyone else. Learning a lot here. Just lurking until Iearn the flow of the thread and the format of contributions.

looks like Dover C-5M #86-0021 flyover for Green Bay home game today at 1pmEST/12 noon CST.

Not a good place to flyover these days.Also some GPS interference.

I'm in the hobby since 1988, but just got serious about Mil Air recently, despite having a PRO-2006 since 1990. Monitoring from NE New Jersey, 5 miles south of Manhattan. Using a BCT-15X and Radio Shack groundplane in the attic, about 50ft ASL.

So far, the majority of the activity I'm hearing is on 315.900, 298.600, 288.000 and to a lesser extent, 237.500. Hope to be making some contributions soon.

Here comes RCH-024 #17-46026 from McConnell. Looks like lining up another half dozen tankers again.
Also here comes RCH-084 KC-135 #60-0366 from Topeka Kansas and RCH-085 #16-46020 from Pease on Acars to KMCF.

Tracked them back to Gander as they came off the Ocean, callsign BARB confirmed phonetically, Moncton cleared them direct destination KBAD.
Couple of the Spain deployed Buffs it seems. Backtracked ADSB to 0230est this morning and one showing departing.
They can go the distance without tankers when need be lightly loaded :)

Seems Green Bay flyover today had local KC-135 leading the way for Zeus-01 C-5M from Dover.

Rich posted this for that ZNY 350.300 heard today back in June. Got to label this in my rotation
as ZNY Matawan.
The 125.850 was used during some CAP work up that way.Spare freq?

ZNY Sector 42 East Texas High;
Matawan, NJ RCAG:
127.175
350.300
I don't see 125.850 listed under any of the ZNY RCAG sites.

Nice catch! yeah noticed that extra strong UHF signal like bombers have.
No luck on A/A search here. Maybe B-2's out of Whiteman? Seemed to pop up out of nowhere.
I heard "BARB 11" flight at my QTH (location) in SE Ohio working Indianapolis Center ARTCC Sector 85 Charleston on 379.175 MHz, and Indianapolis Center ARTCC Sector 83 Falmouth on 317.750 MHz.

Flight of 2 on ZNY 350.300 then push ZNY 270.300 in Pa..
Sounded like BARB-11? both at FL-270.
BARB?-11 on ZOB 363.075 Altoona Westbound sounded like push 379.100 which is WV ZDC Moorfield.
I heard this too but missed the callsign. Signal was solid since I'm just a few miles north of the Matawan RCAG tx site. (which is actually on Beacon Hill in Morganville). I immediately went to ADSB and saw nothing.
