That's nice... Do you have any frequencies to share. I mean that is one of the points of this thread.

over the past few minutes i've heard several people talking to airboss on 132.325, so i guess that confirms that they're using the same freq as last year.
I believe it's 132.320
Air Boss 132.320 Air Coordination Thunder

Air Show fequencies

The march 2008 issue of "Monitoring Times" has their annual listing of air show frquencies. I got some off last year's edition and they worked for me at Blue Angel's show here in Michigan last summer. The website may have the article posted-monitoringtimes.com I think.

Where are you seeing that Thunder starts at 2:30p? Everywhere i've looked it's still 3pm, including the 11pm newscast and all websites.

So no one got down to get some practice frequencies today? Well if they practiced today anyways, that was some hellacious winds drivin in from Illinois. Still suppose to be a little windy for Thunder but hopefully it won't be as bad. I would take rain over high winds any day.

Nevermind, I just found the official schedule on the courier-journal.com. Wonder why Fox41 or even the official Thunder Over Louisville site doesn't mention this earlier start.

They did some practice, some planes did not arrive until 5 PM at the airport. See my previous post for Air Boss. And grasshopper, why did you doubt my wisdom of the start time?

F-16 is going at 7-7:30 PM

They have last years posted, and this years is out in print, almost the same. But a limit search might yield some interesting finds.

the F-16 (Viper1) that was practicing yesterday was talking to his safety observer on 123.150, which i have listed as some sort of common airshow freq that's used by many teams, so be sure to have that one programmed in.

that's the freq where Viper1 was complaining about airliners flying through the box while he was trying to practice.

Airboss Frequency

The airboss frequency (132.3250) is very very fuzzy here. I'm about 20 miles south of louisville... and I'm not sure why its so fuzzy. not making any sense what so ever. Don't know why that is. Not really making sense to me..

EDIT: Actually its hard to understand its so fuzzy.

Remember signal is directional to the North, picking up flights fine, but not air boss.
Signal only has to reach 5 Nautical mile radius.
