19:03 AROMATIC: "OVERSLIDE, OVERSLIDE, THIS IS AROMATIC, AROMATIC. BREAK. MESSAGE OF 3 GROUPS FOLLOWS. IVO OTL ABK; TIME: 1904; AUTHENTICATION: QD. I SAY AGAIN – IVO OTL ABK, TIME: 1904; AUTHENTICATION: QD. THIS IS AROMATIC, OUT."

19:05 AROMATIC: "[...] THIS IS AROMATIC, AROMATIC. BREAK. IVO OTL ABK; TIME: 1906; AUTHENTICATION: [...]"

19:06 FEAR32 calling HYDRA.

- AROMATIC is likely E6 AE0411. AROMATIC calling 'OVERSLIDE', but earlier communications test (from STRATCOM, most likely) was 'OVERSIGHT' – am assuming this is a mistake, and not actual indicator that a different entity was contacted.
- Second transmission was received on SDR with poor reception. Not sure who they were calling, but reception was ok enough to be sure it was not OVERSLIDE/OVERSIGHT again. Authentication was not heard on my end, overpowered by FEAR32.
- FEAR32 reception was very strong on an Alberta SDR, suggesting B52 AE5895, which would correspond with notes that 'HYDRA TOC, unid entity assoc w/B-52 flts over eastern Canada'.

15:00 BAREBACK: "LIVE WIRE, LIVE WIRE, THIS IS BAREBACK, BREAK. MESSAGE OF 3 GROUPS FOLLOWS. WMO GOA ABK; TIME: 00; I AUTHENTICATE EC. I SAY AGAIN, WMO GOA ABK. THIS IS BAREBACK, OUT."
15:02 BAREBACK: "SPINCAST, SPINCAST, THIS IS BAREBACK, BAREBACK. BREAK. WMO GOA ABK; TIME: 02; I AUTHENTICATE KF. I SAY AGAIN, WMO GOA ABK. THIS IS BAREBACK, OUT."

18:19 MAIL CALL calls LIVE WIRE for a radio check.
18:20 LIVE WIRE has MAIL CALL L/C; MAIL CALL has LIVE WIRE L/C as well.
18:20 LIVE WIRE: "DO YOU NEED ANY FURTHER ASSISTANCE? OVER."
18:21 MAIL CALL: "LIVE WIRE, LIVE WIRE, THIS IS MAIL CALL, MAIL CALL. BREAK. MESSAGE OF 3 GROUPS FOLLOWS. IKX AII KRU; TIME: 21; AUTHENTICATION; NS. I SAY AGAIN. IKX AII KRU. THIS IS MAIL CALL, OUT."


- SPIN CAST is likely STRATCOM (heard broadcasting daily communications test to MAINSAIL earlier in the day).
- BAREBACK is likely E6 AE041B.
- MAIL CALL is likely E6 AE0414.
- ID of SPINCAST is unknown; presumably but not necessarily same entity as SPACE GUN (250202), STANDOFF (250203), WHEATIES (250204), and the inaudible recipient on 250205. Anyone in vicinity and able to monitor AFB traffic on 311 MHz could ID or narrow down possibilities – I am not.

- If these persist I wonder if they would be better served posted in the EAM/FDM log...?
