You are correct Dennis. In the pages of MT we carried the complete story and
list in my old friend Chris Parris' Fed File column. In short due to the
refarming of the 380-400 MHz suband to a DoD land mobile service band (so
they can leave all the other gov LMR bands 4-6-420/162-174), the freq folks
at DoD moved the Coast Guard to the following new UHF milair assignments:

237.900    CG Air Operations (Secondary>
282.800    Search and Rescue (worldwide)
326.150    CG Air-Ground working <Primary>
345.000    CG Air Operations <Primary>
379.050    CG Air-Ground working <Secondary>

There are other brand new changes as well to not only the Coast Guard, but
the CG Auxiliary freqs that will be covered extensively in my Sep 2005
Milcom column in MT. You will have to pick up that edition to get those
changes.  I won't give away all the store here. ;-))

73 and good hunting,
