Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2020

[freqhopping]

I've been testing my new antenna on the 380mhz systems. Just heard Quantico range control (TG 7605 newly IDed by me) ask if there was any sign of some F-16s. So there may be some activity soon.

2011- TEAM48 on 354.8 coordinating with someone not heard.
2017- Fighters on 319.175. In a block from 5k to 15k ft for 40 minutes. GUNNY and EMPIRE again.
Passed MGRS 18STH7830072600 which is on Quantico.
They seem to be using this for air to ground like 326.4.

Eagle 70 C17 heard training/refueling with 58-0112 K35R over NC on 324.6 (AR207 Refuel track Primary), 58-0112 continued south afterwards. Believe Eagle 70 landed at Pope AFB Fayetteville.

Del ANG 166AW had their new C-130H up tonight 96-1005 (ADFEA8) callsign something 05
doing low level laps around KILG. Guess getting a feel test for their new tail or temp borrowed.

2100- GUNNY1 taking a break because of an oxygen light in the cockpit. Possbily a loose/disconnected oxygen bottle.
AR taking place for some jets.
The book say must stay below 10k alt cockpit pressure which means no tanking.
2105- GUNNY1 checking in with SOF on 139.45 to see what they have to say about it.

I have 319.175 as a Coronet freq. Gunny is one of the 121st FS lesser used callsigns.

0820- E-6B TACAMO # 162783 (Shado 20 AE040E) off of Dover heading south.

Got up early this morning (05:30 local) for nothing. I thought the Tabor 61 A-10s were supposed to leave Martin State at 1000Z (0600 local)?

Did I misread the times or are they delayed or leave before I tuned in?

Not 100% sure, but I read online that there may have been a 24 hour slip. Can anyone confirm?
