The Blue Angels managed to get about a hour and a half of
play time to day over the lite rain filled skies over Wilmington NC .
Overcast was at 5000 ft. Everything was done low.
They came over the State Ports down here marking there nav points,
hack points ect.
Right out my office window I could see them call the USS North Carolina
has one of  the 2.8 mile from show center marks.It's a real sight seeing those 2 ship
F-18 package banking over the USS NC Ship at about 300 ft! 
Anyhow the active freqs for me today where 237.800,265.00, and 284.250 Mhz.
I 'm using a ICOM-R-2   portable , antenna is a mag. mount 9 inch whip on top
of my car.Oh RS.amplified speaker! Works great!
Will go out to the Wilmington airport Friday and watch the practice show.
Airshow Saturday and Sunday...
