Had a couple of DC ANG F-16s depart ADW a little while ago and they were on 285.225. They might be the Noble CAP ftrs. Looks like Swath 31 came up from Mississippi. Swath and Huntress now working 260.9.

Huntress on 260.9

1745- Have unid type acft, callsign 71, working on DHS discrete 136.375(AM).

1800- CAP appears to be using 350.25 as boom freq. Earlier Swath 31 had advised Huntress that they were using TACAN 92Y for A-A comms.

I'm hearing HUNTRESS' hot mic right now. Sounds like he's trying to explain some sort of computer operation to someone.

Using the TACAN to know where the fighters are located. Makes it easier for refueling work.

Appears an EP-3E is headed down your way. Had NAVY PR 887 with ZID 323.275 just a bit ago.

Now hung a right and headed more to the south.

He went directly overhead at 25000 or so, sounded like he was at 1000. Came out of Seattle.

1937- DeeCee 22 (KC-135R # 57-1479) off ADW then working Liberator CP (351.2) advising that they cannot fly the mission as moderate to severe turbulence is forecast for their AR track. Wants Liberator to notify "the CP" (presumably for the receivers) and notify them that they cannot fly the mission.
