All well and good to spread awareness of the hobby but “vintage” or “retro devices?” My local club’s emergency weapon of choice is a flexradio SDR. And the FTDX-5000 he’s using as a base station isn’t too shabby either. Lastly that looks like a very nice “U-band” antenna. Didn’t know they made verticals for microwave frequencies. LOLGuys
Got this from a friend

I have the following possible freqs for HSC-11: 261.200, 243.600, 254.600, 280.600. Red Dogs probably on 264.200 as usual.Good show yesterday at Eisenhower Park Nassau Long Island NY with Navy and Marine choppers.
One Navy MH-60S had AB tail so should be HSC-11 "Dragonslayers" from Norfolk and AH-1Z Marine chopper crew member had the
Red Dog Marine Joint McGuire uniform patch... Always fun to watch them touch down.
