Thanks Brian. One of my older lists had SCOUT only as an E-3. All of the squadron data was missing.

The SCOUT c/s being heard lately is most likely the 970th AACS AWACS out of
Tinker. This is the USAF Reserves squadron from the 552nd ACW. SCOUT ## is
the front end callsign for ATC, towers, etc. while THUMPER (phonetic letter)
is the rear controller's callsign. They've been using this callsign since
at least 1997.
