Seems tanker CLEAN-04 broke from first group of F-22's.
Heard TABOR-51 trying to contact ZBW on Cape Sector freq on Live ATC net.
1243L- Have TABOR 51 checking in with ZDC 281.45, sounded like a count-off of 4 on 315.85
1251L- Sounded like looking for clearance to Tudep. Must be going north. Faded out now.

1318 ZBW tells TABOR-71 to contact ZBW next sector on 254.375.

Potus running behind? A LC-130 SKIER-01 from NY holding South of Andrews for landing
along with VENUS-31 B737.Saw vid of Potus boarding the big plane at Andrews.
1333 AF-1 taxing out to runway on TV news.

Awhile ago you mentioned about various frequencies for airlines in the 128-132 area...while looking for the air boss, I heard a Delta flight with a maintenance issue working 129.500 with Atlanta for connection to maintenance controller. So must be still useing it for voice requirements. Not sure if the Phila Airport site is still active since I was monitoring from NJ.

@1330L Either SKIER-01 or VENUS-31 called CP 378.100 as A1, parking, 20K lbs gas.

Lucky catch in the car around 1505-1515L:
NOBLE 21 with wingman on 234.7 having problems with reception (both a/c transmitted loud & clear...super clear here in Richmond)
With ZDC Blackstone 235.625 FL220, after repeated radio tests decided to RTB
Contacted SPAD OPS at LFI on 364.125 to notify NORAD that they couldn't get to their station on time
Went from 235.625 to 360.600 (Norfolk App?) to RTB Langley. Began fading out as they went from 170 to 150. Said they'd be burning off fuel for 15min in order to land. they may take off again soon if the problem was a faulty helmet.
It sounded like they were referring to 234.7 as OPS, but it could possibly have been AUX. But when they had to call home, they called one of the F-22 squadron bases.

1330L- TABOR 71 flight checking in with ZDC 281.45, FL 300. Very strong signal like they're right overhead. Request decent to 160.
Sounds like now over to ZDC 285.4 but barely readable.
I was sitting at the airport KWWD - and heard them loud and clear on 285.400 with a small handheld and rubber duck antenna.

Were these guys for the Pittsburgh CAP this afternoon? Saw a tanker earlier today coming down from Pease SWATH-11.
1750 AF-1 departing Pittsburgh now for home.Short hop from there maybe 30 min flight.

Videos from this morning show a Elsworth B-1 arrive RAF Fairford UK for upcoming RIAT airshow.

Yeah a popular freq for air med patches,SanFran radio patches etc down thru Mid Atlantic is 129.450.
Sometimes hear them toggle from 129.400 to 129.450.. Never tried 129.500. Will have to add that.

129.500 is the Delta Atlanta Network. Exclusively for Delta Air Lines flights. When it was more active and I was monitoring from PA, the Philadelphia site enabled me to hear the dispatch talking to aircraft across the country. Of course you only heard the aircraft when it was in range of my radios but it was interesting listening none the less. Northwest had their system on 131.700. Trying to remember the other frequencies for American and other carriers. This was in the days before ACARS and digital data links !!
