This Barksdale B-52 paint job should be a hit everywhere it goes.

B-52 Emerges In Striking Retro Orange Paint Scheme

The jet was painted to pay homage to the days when earlier B-52 variants served as test motherships for X-15 rocket planes.

Posted on another list by a long time HF monitor

0415z 02 Oct 2024

0000z 01 Oct 2024 - New Fiscal Year.

2052z STRATEGY (HFGCS) broadcast the 30 character EAM C6GII6. New prefix.
2130z STRATEGY broadcast C6IGII6 restoral repeat.
2200z Nothing heard.

2328z DRUG 63 (sounds like; good levels on east coast) called MAINSAIL and raised ANDREWS and requested "Latest message traffic for training" and repeated the request when ANDREWS requested a repeat. At 2329z ANDREWS stated "I have no EAM (garbled but maybe "in queue") at this time." DRUG 63 then closed the session.

2345z STRATEGY broadcast the 30 character EAM P5W5AO. Another new prefix.

0000z 02 Oct 2024.

0007z PERFORATE broadcast to MAINSAIL with their daily new UTC day communications test count, a daily practice of many decades. No DTMF tones noted at the end of the broadcast (which is sometimes normal.) Said to be the daily changing callword for the US STRATCOM command post. (It gets very interesting later.)

0022z XYLOPHONE (newday HFGCS) broadcast 30-character C6NQUQ.
0026z XYLOPHONE (weaker; unheard on west coast SDR; perhaps from ANDREWS site?) began a new transmission of C6NQUQ but cut out during preamble with no "disregard."

0027z XYLOPHONE broadcast the 30 character EAM C6T5EZ.
0033z XYLOPHONE broadcast the 30 character EAM C6HP6R.
0046z XYLOPHONE broadcast the 30 character EAM P57VGT.
0057z XYLOPHONE broadcast the 30 character EAM C6UQ5B.

0108z XYLOPHONE broadcast the 30-character EAM C6PYNW.
0149z XYLOPHONE broadcast the 30 character EAM C6DR36.

0204z PERFORATE (good levels) broadcast to ALL STATIONS the 0149z C6DR36. The transmission ended with their usually common DTMF fones.

It is an understatement to say that PERFORATE's transmission is highly unusual. I've heard one other instance of this station broadcasting HF "traffic" and that was in the latter part of 1999 (Y2K) when they fired up a very powerful local evening "voice of coom" transmission of a 30 character 888800 connectivity string. Those 888800 strings were common on the HF ZULU frequency nets during 1999, and I've always assumed they were part of Y2K testing leading up to 2000. And it was highly unusual 25 years ago to hear such a HF transmission from that station. Are there examples over the past 25 years of other instances of such HF traffic?

And to top it off.

0354z (after two disregarded attempts at 0350z and 0352z) XYLOPHONE; FJUY4J; 22-character string (a character count rarity.)

See CAP up over Western NC for potus I assume.
Tanker WIDE-01 two tankers and Sentry-25 E-3 for radar coverage.

Nothing on WIDE01 in acars headed west now, other Tanker was ROMA62 in acars now showing WIDE02, think it is a little early for CAP though.

Sentry25 seems to be moving southwest away from area, but I wouldn't be surprised if E-3 would be on standby due to limited communications in the area.

1056L- Ron, hearing RAVEN 11 flight coming up through NJ. First on ZDC 363.0, then ZNY 290.2, now on ZNY 282.3, self ID'ed as 2 A-10's. Looking to meet up with their tanker over Concord, then direct Portland. Then a single A-10 just checked in AXEMAN 11, same route.
1112L- Hearing RAVEN flt A/A 139.6 (am)
1122L- Hearing weak A/A 140.7 (am), haven't heard this one in a while. Just heard DEVIL 01 & 02 callsigns. Guess they still use these VHF freqs.

Tech,

So, the 228.1 was probably them. It's usually used for CAS training. They must've decided to use it as an A2A on the trip up.
