Pete, I understand. Work is one of those bad 4ltr words that ends in "K"

I know some you are interested in HF so passing th is along.

Over the last day or so the TACAMOs & ABNCPs have been sending their EAMs on 10805.0 USB & 11081.2 USB. This is in addition to the regular HF-GCS freqs.

Ed,

I have 355.000 for Foxtrot Primary. Has it changed?

I'm assuming 234.600 and 231.000 must be frequencies from overseas as I don't see them listed as Coronet freqs.

Jared,

I have 355.0 listed as LANT F PRI as well but no prefix number. A friend of mine and I have logged 356.8 as 61 F LANT PRI dating back to 2013. Not used too much but it pops up once in awhile. You had me questioning if it was correct but it was being used by a TREND "61" flight as their boom freq which makes me thing the number prefix is correct on it. Your thoughts?

I had 234.6 as a NORAD freq. I found 231.0 using search and have no information about it's use. Sorry.

Can't say I've seen a log of 355.000 in the past, but I do see 356.800 listed in Europe as an AR frequency. I think you are likely correct, and it raises the question of whether or not the other Atlantic AR freqs I have are accurate.

 

[AirScan]

13:10 EST - IDOL 12 cleared RTB via direct IHD then requesting IIU direct KBAD at FL250.
13:18 EST - re-cleared direct KBAD.

Jared, I question myself and the freqs I have for Coronet all the time. I try to keep a file of what and when these freqs are used to help me weed out very old unused freqs. Unfortunately, I find myself keeping old freqs. There are a few above the 380 MHz range that are still used quite often for Coronets and to just assume that because they changed the band plan to stop at 380 MHz doesn't mean squat here. With the Atlantic and Euro freqs, there are a whole bunch not heard or seen on this side of the pond that I can't confirm. I can't recall hearing 355.0 either but you just never know. Some freqs only get used once in awhile and then are quiet for a time and then a year or two later....they use them! Coronet chasing is very frustrating and it seems like more luck when I catch new ones!

Last night I caught a 56-character message on 11175, likely from E-6B 163919. I think the callsign was BIRDTRAP. BIRD-something.

They are over the Med now --

21:13 EST - IDOL 11 checking on with Malta Radar approaching waypoint VENIM at FL270-FL280 cleared flight planned route (LMML LiveATC). They are showing up on FR24 but not ADSB-X.

 

[rjsincs]

On Planeradar.ru it was showing the Idol flight getting cozy with a Russian Military Il-62 over Malta. Could have been hundreds of miles apart but it sure looked interesting.
