Terry,
Some additional info.

I have had the flu and am sitting here reviewing the audio I had from
yesterday relating to your post. On 235.9, first I have CASINO 5 with an
apparent ATC switching 269.4. Then for the 2nd sound segment I have GAMBLER
13 advising HUNTRESS he is up 235.9. Then advises he has them Loud & Clear.

This is a known HUNTRESS freq, looking at the work of many others. But it's
the first time I can recall hearing an Aircraft call HUNTRESS on it.

Jeff
