I am hearing these too. The freq is also AR-20 Primary so must be heading there for AR.

DEED 50 (KC-10) also heading that way. The receiver might be GRIM 99 who is returning from Europe.
GRIM-99 with lots of tanker company on AR-20
1 minute behind posting again today You guys are on the ball today :)

Sure would be interested in how that is happening. I am in Middle River and with a discone above the roof line find it hard to get ADW. I always hope for the bay to give a clear view but it does not.
Possible ATIS was being broadcast over ZDC remote site like Sea Isle ZDC site?

BTW I joined with the feeders of ADXBX with one of their simple to use boxes.
Yes you can do cheaper with various Pi4 boxes and Dongles and installing your own free software etc
but I didn't want all the software hassles so payed $350 or so for their all in one plug and play metal box.
So far working good here. There were at times missing low altitude aircraft in my zone here but not anymore.
I still had old roof 1090 antenna from my Airnav feeder days.

0900 - TIGER 11/12/13 (3 x B-2's) are currently working the range at Ft. Drum. Air/Air on 341.750.
0935 - Departing the range now. RTB at FL330-340 non-standard trail.

As the TIGERs passed me outbound at 6:30 am EDT they shared coordinates on 131.75 for a couple of targets:

N 44 09.402 W 075 30.994 719 feet elevation
N 44 09.486 W 075 30.843 725 feet elevation

These easily plot with Google Maps to a possible landfill on the Fort Drum Range:

What freq is 131.750? Local ATC freq,A/A?

BTW finally a new converted Nuke sniffer # 64-14836 almost ready for delivery to Offutt. :)

Yep, this looks about the right spot. There are probably a few new holes there now after them and the B-52's earlier in the week! :)

Bunch of Canada AF Texan 2's headed for Portland Oregon..
TEX2 trainers are really cool prop aircraft.. a few years ago Dover had a couple of them doing rare Demo flybys
and are like acrobatic P-51 Mustangs on steroids.. Those guys really were future/current USAF fighter Hot Dogs :)

Thanks, I should have typed 341.75. (y)
Yes noticed over the years when heavies bombers/tankers are heading to AR-20 for IP they all try
and communicate first on fixed 341.750 AR-20 even while a longs ways off.
Gives them a chance to correct speeds/course etc to make the AR-20 IP on time even if almost half way across the US.
341.750 is a keeper and for the 509th bombers too :)
