I worked with 10 Charlestown Pd units at Humana they were the power we (securitas) we the inforcers and check in. But we used rentable radios from RCS they were UHF Band. I had fun listening to downtown leaving about 11:30 there were multiple shootings in a 10 min period

Are you sure they were UHF, did you get a model number. RCS supplies radios to Derby on their trunked system. Which unfortunately I was too far way to monitor and have a somewhat broken scanner as well.

Fox 41 and WRKA did a great job on covering the event with the live video feed from there web site and also the audio feed from WRKA.I had both computers here in the Comm center on both.I enjoyed the air show and the different aircraft that came to the show.There was about a two second delay between Fox 41 and WRKA.I enjoyed the show and will watch it again next year.It was better than watching another eposide of "Cops" on Saturday Night even though Nascar was on in it's place.
I was able to hear the LIMA LIMA flight team as well as a few others and the heritage fly over.Did I just miss it or did the Red Baron and Coast Guard Jayhawk not fly? I saw the Coast Guard Dalphine but not the Jayhawk.

To my knowledge the Red Baron and the Jayhawk did not fly. I did get some pics of the F-18, F-15, Apaches and Herrier from the roof of the Frazier Museum. My daughter took my vx5 and had my earpiece in. She was hearing a different side of the air show and thought it was cool.

Would one of those wiki things work better? I don't know enough about them....

I would put the show freqs on the wiki, get the regular airport freqs over to the database, then use the extensions to pull the data. It sounds like a lot of work, but it isn't - if anyone is interested in tackling this, send me an email at ka3jjz@netscape.com and I'll walk you thru it.

Louisville International Airport - Standiford Field (KSDF) and Bowman Field (KLOU) are both listed on the Jefferson County page; I haven't scrubbed the Godman Army Airfield (KFTK) info yet, but that is on the list of things in the works.... Which other airports are in use for Thunder? Which freqs remain constant year-to-year... I'd like to find those and enter them in such a way that people can load them into their scanners (possibly as an Agency listing with the Jefferson Co. Airports). Iwill make a list based upon this thread and use that to start the data base listing, hoping that those of you who monitored can send in more information/corrections, etc, as needed.....
Clark County Indiana airport. One of the things I'd like to see is the airport listing up to date, as those could be entered or locked depending on what the user wants for the next Thunder.unitcharlie said:
Clark Co though in Indiana is controlled by Louisville SDF airport so it should be listed with Louisville airports.
And if nothing else, if we listed say 2008 Thunder frequencies in use, that would give out of town people a place to start, even if some changed from the last year. I seem to have found a new frequency for an airport or airspace, but have not yet identified it or it's use. I do know they were doing work at the Henryville RCAG, phone line and radio work, but have not had time to verify if anything has changed yet.

Let me check with my buddy across the River and see if he minds if we list it in Jefferson County.... The KSDF and KLOU freqs are as updated as I can make them.... The ones with a specific ID have been submitted as monitored... I have a few listed as Aero Enroute because the Aviation Spectrum listings frequently aren't specific so it takes hours of waiting for the one transmission to nail down a solid id: FBO-AVCenter, this is Exec-JetXXX... we need 500 gallons and lav service... a bag of ice and the Mercedes SUV pulled around for us. We'll be there in 15...
If all the folks in Louisville--visitors as well--who monitored Thunder will submit their findings and include whether they are new for 2008 or seem to be constant back a few Thunders, then I will assemble that list and post it.... then as the practice sessions happen if folks will submit updates I'll get to them overnight so that by Saturday they should be good-to-go..... BUT PLZ, JUST FREQS ACTUALLY MONITORED FOR THUNDER....
