Unknown activity (seems like Army surveillance) on 122.850, somewhat sporadic. This pops up every few weeks or so, but I haven't been able to figure out the location. Fort Knox is one possibility - is anyone in western KY hearing comms on this freq?

 

[jsoergel]

ZID-1 track active now until 2400Z (the next two hours). Has anyone logged activity? I've been listening, but nothing yet.
