According to the The Robins Rev-Up online newspaper, a U-2 is scheduled
to be at Robins AFB from Aug 2 - Aug 5:

"The base will commemorate the 330th Command and Control Intelligence
Surveillance Reconnaissance Group's (ISRG) 50th anniversary of the U-2S
'Dragon Lady' with events at Robins from Tuesday through Aug. 5.
The aircraft, due to arrive at Robins from Air Force Plant 42, Palmdale,
Calf., Tuesday afternoon, will be on display at the flightline Wednesday,
to give the Center's senior staff and other base officials at Robins a
glimpse of the reconnaissance aircraft."

Freqs to watch in Georgia based upon previous U-2 visits:

123.325  Unknown ops, used last Aug. by NASA 809 inbound to Robins
239.350  Atlanta Center High Sector Columbus (VHF 125.575)
319.100  Atlanta Center Ultra-High Sector Montgomery (VHF 134.600)
335.650  Atlanta Center High Sector Macon (VHF 126.425)
360.750  Atlanta Center Low Sector Macon (VHF 134.500)

IIRC there was also a military Victor freq used by the U-2 but I can't
find it in my notes :-(
