   It is 12:44pm EST (1744z).  All the F/A-18s have departed Avon Park 
Bombing Range.  Two A-10 flights (both TDY at Patrick AFB all week long) have just 
departed Patrick AFB heading to the Range.  Once there they will work with 
Ground FAC "Advance."
   The two flights are UGLY 01 and FLYER 21, both PA-ANG flights.
   FLYER 01 is up with Avon Range Control 292.2 asking them to relay to 
Advance that they are transmitting on their pod and want to know how far out from 
Avon he can receive them.
   Both flights are now on UHF ATC freqs, look for them to both be on 292.2, 
285.725 and 264.625.
