Again new to this sub form. Can I get some suggestions for the best frequencies in the Baltimore area for mil air with SDRs and iffy antennas.
Yeah one of the 2 original C-5C models now C-5CM? the other is 68-0213 both stationed at Travis.
Odd was at Dover for work.. Maybe new mods for occasional NASA hauling?
Saw vid of T-BIRDS departing Pensacola ramp yesterday and TBIRD 14 C-17 from McGuire still parked there.

What Hex code was being displayed for the target ?
Curious, Is that the DPD productions- VHF Air Vertical Outdoor Base Antenna?
Robert
Yes closest to the bay - the one nearer the camera is the DPD ADS-B antenna.
I also use his AIS antenna plus the airband one.
Terry
What are your thoughts on this antenna - Air Omni UHF/VHF Base Antenna. I was thinking about getting one.
Yes, that's the one.
I use the Air Omni and works decent but am going back soon to a vertical beam yagi on rotator
again like I had years ago.. That was the all time best.
Also use the DPD ADSB antenna and works fine.

I agree with Mark - the antenna works fine for me but it is installed in the attic not on the roof. The vertical one does most of the work for me and performs well. Actually I have never had any issues with Dave and his products. Great customer support too.

1239- Have some chat on 318.5 which I have listed as B-2 A-A. No calls noted but very strange sounding xmitters.
I guess teams splitting up now as TBIRD 14 off Pensacola westbound across the South.
Their T-BIRD page says rtb Nellis today and will announce future dates soon.
T-BIRDS supposed to do some West Coast shows and Angels get the Mid-West.
Both going to Texas and New Orleans Wednesday

I just checked my 436HP recordings, seems I've got some of this recorded and more listening to do. My first recording after getting home from the flyover is at 1259 and the pilot talking on A>A about the checklist procedures.
Updated article says Blue Angels only and T-Birds page says "There are no additional joint flyovers planned at this time"Both going to Texas and New Orleans Wednesday

"The Thunderbirds will NOT accompany the Blue Angels for this flyover"
Dallas news kind of jumped the gun..
