Someone here in the UK on Fighter Control website posted he'd heard a 48hr slip so Friday now possibly for the drag over. Will be interesting to see how many of the 5 come. Might be 2 or 3 perhaps 🤔

Ravage call has been used by DC ANG F-16s in the past.

Thanks, first time I’ve heard that one (did see it on your list). Checking the LiveATC archives RAVAGE 31 was ID’d as F-16s, also with BULLY 11 and GUNNY 21. Was a busy morning, the DC ANG F-16s were in Viper West the same time BTV ANG F-35s, WEASEL 21, VENOM 31 (rare), STROKE 41 were working in Viper East. Sounds like the F-16s popped into Wheeler-Sack for gas between sorties, then cleared RTB ADW via CFB-LRP-BWI-OTT direct.

1420- Anyone hear about something happening off NJ coast? ADS-B is showing CG 6605, King 73 (HC-130J # 16-5873) & Jolly 12 (HH-60 # 05-27039) all operating at low levels off the NJ coast from ACY to Long Island. They are too low and too far away for me to pick up anything. Jolly 12 & King 73 are out of Gabreski Field on Long Island.

Haven't heard anything (at the office) - but I did see a CG helo on ADS-B this morning, off the coast of LI about 10 miles SSE of Gabreski Field, doing a low "pinwheel" (best way I can describe it) pattern over a point. Checking marine/ship tracking websites this morning, there were some vessels in the surrounding 20 or so miles (a German flagged contain ship, and a pusher tug/fuel barge IIRC), but nothing at that point specifically, there is now an "SAR/Military Satelite Position" showing at that location. KING 73 is now operating in an area just to the west of what I viewed this morning.

11am - Coast Guard rescue helo 6023 on scene searching for a missing boater in approx. position 40.34 72.41 off the south shore of Long island. Comms on Marine Ch. 16 (156.800), Ch.22 (157.100) and LMR CG112 (163.050). 1 boater recovered, 1 missing. The tuna fishing boat collided with an oil tanker during the night and sank in 15 minutes. Both boaters had time to don their life vests, so lets hope he is found safe.
UPDATE... As of 14:30, the search continues, with additional helos, fixed wing aircraft CG2303, a C-130, King73 from Suffolk County ANG, and CG Cutter Sanibal joining the search. Some comms also on CG409 (412.975)

Guys,

Found this on a site in a Google search. For you guys close to the coast & CG stations might be some good freqs here?


Back in early 2008, the Coast Guard began using new narrow-band radios, capable of APCO P-25 digital mode as well as analog. When the new radios went on line, so did some new frequencies.

For many years, Coast Guard listeners were familiar with the "LANT" VHF FM land-mobile channels that some Coast Guard operations used. With the move to narrow-band radios some of these frequencies changed, and they are now referred to by "NET" numbers. Note that the NET numbers will have 100 added to them for APCO P-25 digital, so NET 1 would become NET 101 if they are digital.

Here is the most recent list of these new USCG NET channels:
NET 01 139.9750
NET 02 140.4750
NET 03 140.7250
NET 04 141.6125
NET 05 150.7250
NET 06 141.5500
NET 07 150.3000
NET 08 162.0500
NET 09 162.1250
NET 10 162.2500
NET 11 162.3250
NET 12 163.0500
NET 13 163.1375
NET 14 164.3000
NET 15 164.3125
NET 16 164.5500
NET 17 164.5625
NET 18 164.9000
NET 19 164.9125
NET 20 165.2625
NET 21 165.3125

NET 32 171.3375
NET 33 171.3500
NET 34 171.3625
NET 43 171.1500 (Heard in the Puget Sound area ID'd as NET 143 by CG 6521)
NET 50 172.0375 (Not Confirmed)
NET 51 165.4625 (Not Confirmed)

In addition to the above nationwide channels, some additional VHF channels have started to be seen in the northern border areas of the country. It's not yet known if these are part of the nationwide CG channel list or just used regionally. But give them a listen and see what comes up:

167.1125, N293 - Called "AG-1" in the Toledo, OH area
167.6250, N293 - AG-102 Heard in various areas of Michigan
173.1000, N293 - AG-109 Reported in the Buffalo, NY area
173.4750, N293 - Possible Coast Guard "A-G" activity heard in Buffalo, NY area
173.5375, N293 - AG-113 Reported in the Buffalo, NY area

Here are all the UHF Coast Guard allocations with the identified P-25 NET numbers:

The Coast Guard P-25 channels tend to us a NAC of N293. Encryption is used, some areas use it consistently, others not so much.
Officially the US Coast Guard moved it's UHF aircraft operation frequencies at the beginning of 2006. This was done to move their frequencies out of the 380-400 MHz DoD Land Mobile band.

Here are the new USCG air frequencies:
237.9 MHz - Operations (secondary)

326.15 MHz - Air-to-Ground (primary)

345.0 MHz - Operations (primary)

379.05 MHz - Air-to-Ground (secondary)

However, don't take out the old Coast Guard UHF frequencies! It appears that some units are still using them for air-to-air tactical and training ops:
381.7 MHz

381.8 MHz
383.9 MHz

If you happen to be near a Coast Guard dock or near where Coast Guard cutters operate, be sure and keep your scanners near field searching capabilities going. The CG cutters have a history of using anything and everything for on-board radios. Some use UHF business channels, some use FRS radios and some use oddball, non-standard channels for hand held radios on the boat. Here are a few that were found in a Coast Guard radio-programming template. There was nothing specified for CTCSS or DCS squelch tones. The frequencies listed are rather a strange mix:

1 430.5250
2 431.5250
3 432.7350
4 434.5250
5 436.7650
6 437.6250
7 438.5750
8 440.5625
9 440.5850
10 449.7125
11 450.5250
12 451.7625
13 455.5150
14 460.7750
15 465.5250
16 461.5250

In addition to the new P-25 NETs, the new radios also contain the new VHF federal interoperability frequencies that have been made available to all federal agencies. There are two groups of VHF federal interoperability channels available in the CG radios, and here they are:

VHF Law Enforcement (LE)
LE-A 167.0875 (simplex)
LE-1 167.0875
LE-2 167.2500
LE-3 167.7500
LE-4 168.1125
LE-5 168.4625
LE-6 167.2500 (simplex)
LE-7 167.7500 (simplex)
LE-8 168.1125 (simplex)
LE-9 168.4625 (simplex)

VHF Incident Response (IR)
IR-C 169.5375
IR-1 170.0125
IR-2 170.4125
IR-3 170.6875
IR-4 173.0375
IR-5 169.5375 (simplex)
IR-6 170.0125 (simplex)
IR-7 170.4125 (simplex)
IR-8 170.6875 (simplex)
IR-9 173.0375 (simplex)
