377.300 AM Air to ground gunnery @ 1829Z 08FEB19

"I'd like one to lead in with guns and two to come in with dry bombs.

Now I'd like to talk about targets, tanks near that large ball of dirt, and we'll get the people too.

Egress the target area and do a type three on the target area, number one will be 30 mike mike followed up by two with jdams, air burst, off right to south.

Good hits on the SA8!

Good splash!

Guns ready.

HARD ROCK, we have to leave in about two minutes, I'd like to empty my guns"


etc

Presumed A10s or F16s working at Camp Atterbury.

Extending the range of a Discone antenna down to 3.6 MHz

This is nice for folks who don't have the ability or desire to deploy a more effective hf antenna than a discone.

LOOKING GLASS standing by for traffic @ 2029Z 07FEB19

Our old friend NIGHTWATCH being called by LOOKING GLASS (yl) @ 2300Z, answered by NIGHTWATCH but ignores reply. LOOKING GLASS then calls for any station. Note that just because you can hear them doesn't mean they can hear each other.

I had two 660s and they both had a spur every few kilohertz wich kinda ruined them for me. The 880 is kinda an upgraded 660 so I fear it may have the same issue. I got to use a 7600 for a time and found it to be a lovely portable.

Here's a link to some reviews of various radios;
https://www.eham.net/reviews/products/8
The best way to use these reviews is to look not at the 5 star ratings but at the 1s and 2s and see if the same issue crops up over and over, if it does, that may indicate the rig has design issues you can avoid. Many swl sites also have reviews so check them out too.

Speaking of MARS, SKULL 12 calls on triple one for MARS radio for pp, corrects himself and calls for MAINSAIL, raises WESTCOAST.

SKULL 12 has mask noise as well as jet engine noise, so kinda narrows down who it can be;
SKULL F-16C/D 80th FS Kunsan Korea
SKULL B-52H 2nd BW/20th BS, Barksdale AFB, LA
SKULL F-15 54rd TEG Eglin AFB FL
SKULL A-10 81ST FS SPANGDAHLEM AB GE
SKULL C-130H 179th AMW/164th AS OH ANG Mansfield OH

Call made to Georgia commercial number, pp not going very well.

HOLD FAST in phone patch to SHEEP MAN via station DOWN DEEP for mux setup,

HOLD FAST wants to use a series of GEP's including stations STRINGENT and DEPENDENT, ending at station BEAT BACK, with RF16 and RF1 as the mux channels.

SHEEP MAN replies RF1 is reserved so will use RF12 and RF16.

HOLD FAST says wants to use 16 for the analog side, 12 for the digital.

The following is random chatter from HOLD FAST, might be mistakenly keying mic as only one side of convo heard;
"Go for HOLD FAST"
"Mission number 12085 tack 18"

I'm still waiting for them to show up on uhf mux and/or enter the net via hf.

Via udxf, apparently USAF MARS is also used to coordinate GEP transitions between NCA ac and HFGCS. See 13927 USB for MARS phone patch fun.
