Looks like the East Coast is up for another show, Space Flight Now is live with a Falcon 9 putting 2 Intelsat satellites up.


1922: Well looks like we got shafted.. it went more equatorial over up the coast.

Intelsat are in geostationary orbits - so they launch from the Cape in an easterly/southeasterly direction. Launching in the direction of the Earth's rotation provides an extra boost. October 20th is the next Starlink launch with possible up the east coast trajectory.

The other day Space X launched to ISS they gave out these freqs for monitoring.I didn't have time to program in time.
VHF 146.940 and UHF 444.925.
That VHF 146.940 is also a 2 meter Ham repeater in Pa near Maryland State line with PL 107.2 LOL

NIGHTHAWK 31 heard in Kentucky with a call for weather on 255.4, no answer.

Sounded like a flight of four helos westbound at 1015 am EDT. Air to air Marine talk on 273.95 about partying on cross country flights at 'HMX' and other squadrons. Cop cars at the O' Club and DUIs. They are flying VFR so look out for the TFR at Fort Knox.

Those should be the ‘green side’ HMX Ospreys repositioning to the West Coast of the President’s trip there this week.

More HMX-1 chatter on 273.95 here in Kentucky today at 11:30 am EDT.

Talking about direct HODGES (?) and a bingo fuel calculation that doesn't see right. Often that can mean that a waypoint was misspelled or the winds were entered incorrectly.

Sounds like another VFR flight plan, they discuss getting clearance through some Class Bravo airspace. If you file IFR, the controllers handle that for you.
