This data is from publicly available information which is unclassified. While I can appreciate the point you attempted to convey, this is the Information Age. It is not a secret where or how we operate, in fact, official U.S. government websites and social media pages routinely release information on assets/operations for messaging purposes (recruiting, etc). I mean, what do you think an air show or fleet week is for?

As for the second half, relax on the fear-mongering. It is counterproductive.

Without going into the Telecommunications Act, which I am sure that every HAM radio operator whould be reasonably familar with -- regarding communicaitons that transmitted over the airwaves and recieved by a radio, scanner, etc.

If you are referring to the espionage provisions in 18 USC 793, here is something that you should consider when reading the black letter law.
(Thanks to Westlaw, unfortunately I cannot link as I have access through my work but the cases and their locations as well as the Westlaw Key is included)

Statute prohibiting anyone with documents relating to the national defense from wilfully delivering them to any person not entitled to receive them applied to conduct of government employee in “leaking” information to a British magazine.  U.S. v. Morison, D.C.Md.1985, 604 F.Supp. 655, appeal dismissed 774 F.2d 1156.  War And National Emergency 1125

Espionage statutes, prohibiting those with access to national defense information from wilfully communicating, delivering, or transmitting the information to a person not entitled to receive it, applied to military intelligence employee who made unauthorized transmittal of satellite-secured photographs to periodical publisher.  U.S. v. Morison, C.A.4 (Md.) 1988, 844 F.2d 1057, certiorari denied 109 S.Ct. 259, 488 U.S. 908, 102 L.Ed.2d 247.  War And National Emergency 1125

Defendant's prosecution for unlawfully disclosing information relating to national defense to a person not entitled to receive it did not run afoul of the First Amendment, even though his oral disclosures of national security information qualified as speech; by virtue of his security clearance, defendant was entrusted with access to classified national security information and had a duty not to disclose that information, the First Amendment did not cloak his breach of that duty, and defendant expressly waived in writing his right to disclose the national security information he obtained while in his government position.  U.S. v. Kim, D.D.C.2011, 808 F.Supp.2d 44.  Constitutional Law 1807;  War and National Emergency 1125

Accused had no First Amendment right to disclose classified information relating to national security, in general court martial for accused's downloading and transmitting information to a website that disseminated it; First Amendment did not protect unauthorized disclosures of classified information.  United States v. Manning, 78 M.J. 501 (Army Ct. Crim. App. 2018), review denied 79 M.J. 98.  Constitutional Law 2037;  Military Justice 790

Government was required, in action under the Espionage Act, to prove that defendant charged with an oral disclosure of information relating to the national defense (NDI) actually knew that the information he disclosed was closely held by the government and damaging to national security if revealed, and actually knew that the recipient was not entitled to receive the information under the applicable classification regulations.  U.S. v. Rosen, E.D.Va.2007, 520 F.Supp.2d 786.  War And National Emergency 1125

1023- Noble 21 flt working ZDC Snow Hill (236.825) & ZDC Martinsburg (379.3)<ZDC Sea Isle (285.4)> ZDC Millville (363.0). Don't know why Snow Hill sent them over to Martinsburg.
Sounds like the controller never heard them on 379.300 and told them to come up his other frequency 285.450, but never heard him working them there either. LiveATC Audio 379.300 Controller

Little compilation of some of the better questions from yesterdays CAP over Wilmington, DE. I have much more than just this but edited it down a bit.
I just want to put this out to the group. Having this on YouTube will not benefit monitoring in the future. Having our little forum here is pretty low-key, but having their transmissions for everyone to hear on YouTube is really going to rock the boat. Does anyone else agree?

It is not the first and won't be the last, it has been going on for years on all social media platforms. I for one totally disagree with your position, but at the same time recognize you have the right to your own opinion.

Just something to keep an eye on: McConnell has initiated another weather evac, just like last weekend. Their KC-46s look to be heading to Pease again with TURBO callsign, and KC-135s seem to be heading to various places with WYLIE callsign.

RaleighGuy, I appreciate your feedback. I say this because our monitoring could slowly disappear as they move to more secure forms of radio, and the more the actual pilots and units start seeing this on mainstream media, what do you think will happen?
