Mark,

Geez I was listening off & on most of the day and didn't hear anything from the Devils.

What freqs did you hear them on? Maybe I have the wrong ones in my scanner.

I got the tail # wrong was actually Dover C-17 #01-0191 but thought that 911 callsign was a bit different than usual.
Some more missions like this to come according to the USAF.

US Air Force Flew Half a Million Coronavirus Test Swabs From Italy to Tennessee

Similar missions to distribute COVID-19 test kits are expected in coming days.

I have 255.6 listed as a McGuire tower alternate. Was it definitely 255.65?

Interesting. Signal was faint at time, but clear. But it was definitely 255.65

Interesting side note:

@0725 local time did ADS-B Exchange scan of entire east coast(Maine to Florida to Great Lakes area) and not one military flt showed

1550- Couple of MD ANG A-10Cs returning to Martin State were apparently told that there was some sort of issue on the runway and it would be 1/2 hour before they could open it up.

A-10s were w/Raven Ops (275.7) discussing options and decided to hang around for 30 mins then decided where to divert.
