Calls like SPARE RIB and the like are going to be per-mission or time based, in this case an E6 tacamo flight, where GRAPE VINE is the ground callsign of the station handling HFGCS comms to/from tacamo flights, perhaps Tinker AFB.

FARM BOY, PATHOLOGY, and COOL AIR are per-mission callsigns for the mux GEP, Ground Entry Points where the tacamo has a full duplex mux system in operation; the tacamo flight sends wideband fm uhf mux dowlink on one freq, the uplinked GEP sends on another freq. As the tacamo orbits, it loses contact with one GEP and switches to the other as it comes within range. These calls may never be used again but who knows.

I need to start writing down the calls I hear. I always try to check in on 11.175 on a daily basis. The first month or so I thought there were only five calls or so. Now I realize there are so many more. I will try to document better and post my findings.

The rotating tactical callsigns (like the stations that send the EAMs and similar traffic) change every 24 hours and are selected randomly form a list.  This means they can repeat, be used again, but sometimes it takes years to get back around to a specific callsign, others never get reselected.  Other callsigns are permanent and follow the unit or the aircraft, things like SCARRY54, the REACH callsigns, etc.

11175 // 8992 has been busy this morning with PAID OFF broadcasting multiple EAMs, and then calling TELL TALE (no response) at 1607 UTC. During the EAM, RTTY data appeared right along side the voice audio on both frequencies.. sounds a lot like it is mixed in with the EAM audio itself from the same transmitter.

Another EAM from PAID off began at 1616 UTC, much stronger on both frequencies, and without the RTTY.

They often have the mixing console set wrong and feed S4481 at times along with EAMs. Also for giggles it was an old (1950s) US Army practice to send voice over fsk, and it worked fine. What I mean is a constant fsk bcast signal was mixed with voice  at the transmitter, the human at the other end just had to put up with the fsk, while the rrty machine ignored the voice traffic and continued to print.
