There are two active licensed users for 457.525 in Hillsborough county. One is 5 miles, the other is 14 miles from the Hard Rock.

And so many CARGO Ops, it might be hard to ID anyway...
BTW, I've also see the USCG [Officially and Unofficially] use those pairs too, [since you mention American]
No tone, and no idea which ship. It did have an American crew, however.

Yes, the Cargo/Tanker and LNG's are tougher unless you catch them Docking/UnDocking and even then a busy port is tough


Exactly. I usually try to ID tankers, but everything else is tough (with the exception of cruise ships).
