Well maybe it's the time of year, or shall I say all year, but this list has 
got about 25 hobbyist (6 who post almost daily) or so, that at least 
contribute their local areas activity report for all hobbyists on the list 
on a monthly basis .

Personally, I've tried to motivate the silent majority by conducting 
extensive & very time consuming research & than publically posting  by state 
frequencies gathered from the the DOD IFR & VFR supplements over the last 
year or so
See:  https://164.214.2.62/products/digitalaero/index.cfm

Unfortunately, I won't be taking the time to do this research in the future. 
...  Perhaps, others on this list will be motivated to do this all states 
updating total research and/or hobbyists from various individual 
states/regions will at least do the reseach for their respective regions & 
post the information.  Of course, these are just listed frequencies that are 
likely to have activity on them.  The real key is to get some return input 
with callsigns, aircraft/helo types & basically some sort of monthly 
activity report which keeps this list alive!!!

Again, why belong to a list if you are unwilling to take a bit of your time 
to contribute??!!!!!. If the 25 or so hobbyists on this list didn't 
contribute their logging/activity reports, than frankly the list would be 
silent.

So again, PLEASE consider posting what you hear.. Even a snapshot of 1 day's 
activity per month would be great & would enhance the quality/coverage of 
the list, since we have many areas in the US that have extensive military 
aero ops that aren't represented on this list.

Furthermore, I'd like to thank those hobbyists who continue to keep the list 
alive by posting what they monitor!!!
