Monitored from Bowling Green, KY 10/23 1600z
JSTARS data burst (Have Quick) being monitored on 287.450. s6 signal, very strong/continuous, possibly in orbit in area.

I've been hearing activity on 314.400 for the past hour or so - just got "direct Selfridge," so probably MI ANG A-10s. Does anyone know the frequency? Seems like tactical, but I can't confirm.
Also picked traffic up on 225.700 OH ANG Ops.
Monitored from Bowling Green, KY 10/29, 1610z
TEAM 01, KC10, 305ARW, McGuire AFB, NJ getting ready to conduct business with CLAW 55, also a KC10 from the 305 AW on AR455. Currently being monitored on AR primary 336.100. CLAW just passed over Bowling Green at FL180. Had a visual on him in and out of the cloud cover.

314.400 Is A/A TAC for Selfridge A-10 (I almost wrote F-16's). DEMON 11 flt uses it. YALTA 31 flt uses 349.400 for A/A TAC. I haven't found TEJAS 21 flts A/A TAC UHF freq yet.
YALTAS were here using that this week - confusing at first since that freq is also used as the 445th AW CP (Buckeye Control). Haven't heard TEJAS recently, though. Can anyone confirm the "YODER" (?) callsign used by the 180th FW? They were using it tonight in Buckeye (A/A on 139.625).
YODER is the 180th out of Toledo. They started using this callsign 08-16-09. On 08-18-09 YODER 11 was talking to Cleve.C. on 269.525. Yoder 11, they gave us a new call sign. It could be related to that, 09:41am.

That makes sense - the first time I heard it I wondered if I was mistaking it for YALTA, but then caught them talking about returning to Toledo.
Just out of curiousity, do you ever pick up the Springfield-based Vipers flying in northern Ohio and Michigan? About a week ago I listened to SABER 11 x2 heading that way and thought they requested direct SBM. Also heard flight lead tell his wingman to contact Northern Lights, and later picked them up chatting about being authorized supersonic (meaning they must have been near the Great Lakes).
