Good catch. It is a simulated exercise w/ STARGATE being the backend controller of a E8c JSTARS a/c from the 116 ACW at Warner Robbins AFB in GA. Usual altitude for these exercises is FL310. Freq 355.250 is associated with JSTARS a/c. ATC call for this a/c is PEACH ??.

NOTAM posted for a low-altitude refueling track (surface to 4500') active 1815-2015 EDT today and tomorrow. Probably for Army helicopters - if it is, they're from Fort Campbell. Track runs roughly between Mount Sterling-Montgomery County Airport [KIOB] and Big Sandy Regional Airport [K22].

Not too sure about coordination freqs, but I would guess ZID (124.225/360.725) or Lexington Approach.

What makes you so sure they'd be from Ft Campbell? That's a good little ways for a Campbell helo to travel when they have 4 tracks close to home. It could be for anything. I wouldn't put all my eggs in one basket.

They are the closest unit with AR-capable helicopters. Educated guess, really.

364.200 STARGATE calling what he made to sound like BLUEASS but must be BLUEICE. It definitely wasn't BLUEGRASS. Looking for a signal check on "AICC".
(1136EDT)

Earlier had 341.750 active with AAR and also 268.100.

Searching/scanning as we speak. Are there any other milcom monitors in the metro area? Or any mailing lists for Kentucky milair?
