Where is the command control station for the CAP?

CAP's are organized by NORAD and controlled in this area by EADS at Griffiss in Rome NY.
There is two detachments in DC area as well. Used to be called NEADS but I think after 9/11 problems it is now just called EADS.
Eastern Air Defense Sector - Wikipedia

I never heard any MD ANG A-10's today or A/C F-16s both on training down South.
Maybe back home Sunday.

Today's last shift of NOBLE's was using their AUX 9 367.5 heading out of Guard Dog

I meant for radio comms on the CAP frequency eg. 260.900. I heard NOBLE flights and the AAR stuff... Is there someone directing the CAP on frequency? Is Huntress the the one who is assuming command and control from a ground station?

HUNTRESS - Static Callsign for the NORAD North East Air Defense Sector, Headquartered in Rome, NY.

So if one was near Rome, NY you could hear the ground side?

No; although NORAD is headquartered there, they use remote transceivers close to where the fighters are located.

One of the remote sites used when POTUS is in Wilmington or Rehoboth Beach Delaware is at the FAA radar site in Gibbsboro NJ.

 

[Mark]

Should be busy afternoon around here as CAP will move from Camp David to Wilm area.
Also the 177th FW NJ ANG F-16's will do the Eagles-Niners pre-game flyover in Philly around 3PM local.
P-6 had a good Friday Chopper vid in the DC area.Looked like a Police chopper convention from area Police agencies.
D.C. gets ready for the release of the Tyre Nichols video - YouTube

Speaking of Terry, would you mind locking out the “Federal” bank on your feed, please? I miss hearing the CAP fighters and Tankers.

 

[skthomp]

The FAA’s Washington Center at Leesburg, VA, has also served as a remote RX/TX for Huntress. But I’ve moved out of the area and can’t say whether it’s currently in use.

 

[skthomp]

See REACH 805 and 127 over Slovakia and heading for Hungary. Both C-17s. Those tanks need to get to Ukraine somehow.…

I can sometimes hear the ground side at KILG. You hear a tone then they start talking I’ll try and find some audio I have.
