Thunderbird Freqs - possibly

[aprswatcher]

Found these on another thread here on RR.

Credit should go to "kendrict" from Ohio for posting these. Thanks!
At Dayton Ohio on July 23, 2011...

I researched and loaded the frequencies below. The resulting hit counts are shown also. The diamond leader was on 141.075. The solo leader was on 235.250. The ground crew was on 413.275.

I named the channels as best I could but can't say how accurate they are. It led to some very interesting listening while watching the show. You should take headphones though. During the show we sometimes could not hear the radio. Have fun!

The numbers in the far right column are "hits" ie number of times the frequency was active, so as you can see the 141.075 and 235.25 were the
active VHF/UHF frequency at Dayton.

Hope these help out.
I am already set for the Airshow, scanners are programmed, see ya there!

Thunderbirds in Cheyenne on the 25th

Thought I would reactivate this thread and see if anyone can check the previous freqs at the practice show tomorrow (Tuesday the 24th).

I can't imagine them changing a whole lot, since they have been the same at most shows all around the US this year.

Thanks for any updates.

A great show today even though it was delayed about 30 minutes due to low cloud ceiling!

These freqs were in use today:

141.175 Diamond Formation
235.25 Opposing Solos

Great to see the Thunderbirds back at CFD!
