I should have posted here instead of writing a new message, sorry.

The airfield is closed right now for practice and the tower and departure feeds are dead, because no one is using them.  I assume something similar will happen during the show.  I assume there will be a common frequency for pilots in the show to use for coordination, can this be added to the feed for the weekend?

The scanner that I just installed this week has mil-air on it so I'm hoping to add frequencies this evening.  Monitoring times blogspot has a Air show guide that I will be using to help with the frequencies.  Hopefully they are accurate for this year.

Neat.  This morning there were a few cars at the turn-off on Behan Rd. halfway down 4/22, and someone had what looked like a scanner set up multiple antennas.  If you can't figure out the right frequencies, maybe those folks will know, if they are there again (or still).

Additional frequencies added for KROC feed.  I am hoping that we will be able to hear some com's from the Blue Angels today.  No guarantees though.

I wuz there!

Get any comm traffic during the Blue's routine on Sunday?  The #5 plane (I think it was 5, at least it was one of the two solos) landed early, about 3/4 of the way through the show.  When we left we drove down past the end of the active runway and the jet was still sitting there on the taxiway.

I heard the Blue Angels' comms on Friday during their practice, so it's probably there on Sunday.  Someone will have to check the archives because I wasn't listening live then.
