That’s horrible. Aren’t they required to mitigate RFI (at least where it impacts commercial bands...?)
1446z 260.900 BANKR51 checking in with HUNTRESS on time for the CAP.

I called them and complained but , of course, they denied that their power lines were causing my problem.
Maybe if they had placed the new lines at the same location as the old ones it wouldn't be so bad. But the new ones are right at the back of my yard, near my fence line.

Still hearing the Camp David CAP as of 1230 local
Departure scheduled for 2:15pm today, expect CAP to end about that time
Looks like 09-0016 off Andrews headed North to pick him up.

I'm surprised they use fixed wing for this....didn't they just use HMX during the Bush years, at least?
It's about 40 minute motorcade ride (with escorts) to/from Camp David and the airport, so he will probably head out about 1:30 to Hagerstown
According to the White House there are "weather concerns" that make fixed wing safer. I asked the question on Friday when they went up there.
KHGR has 600 ft ceiling today

As long as the weather is good. A time or two the weather has been bad they just drove the whole way.

This sounds like it's going to be a GD CAP first. First time I've ever heard it. BANKER52 will be offloading to BANKER51, at least 30k pounds.
It's good thing 51 is a KC-10.

Forgive me if this is better for a separate forum, but...
I'd like to pare down my CAP frequency lists so that I can exclude the ATC stuff I'm never going to hear anyway. So on the civilian air side other than the ZDC RCAG sites, anything I should include? I was thinking southern PA (so maybe some ZNY sectors).

Related to the weather, no Marine One in the sky today from Andrews, WH made a bad weather call on POTUS' return to DC, so he'll be motorcading back from Joint Base Andrews

When POTUS goes to Delaware for the fighters, I would put ZDC Woodstown (125.45/363.0), ZDC Swann (134.5/360.7), ZDC Dupont (132.525/307.25) Philly /D 317.55 & 319.5 & KILG A/D 124.35. During the last Delaware CAP I don't think any ZNY freqs were used.
However, it depends on where the CAP tankers are coming from. If from the north I would put in ZNY Kennedy (125.325), ZNY Yardley (134.6) ZDC Casino (127.7) ZDC Sea Isle (133.125).
If they come from west try ZNY Harrisburg (133.475) & ZDC Pinion (133.95). If from the south try ZDC Yorktown (120.75) ZDC Salisbury (120.975) ZDC Snow Hill (121.375) ZDC Brooke (126.875).
