[MilCom] Nascar Flyovers ground comms?

[j.plyler at att.net]

The A/G comms are on different freqs different weeks. It all depends on the unit(s) performing the fly-by. Dover for example usually uses on of the Dover AFB GCA freqs for coordination. Usually callsign "Elvis" will be atop the grandstands directing the incoming flight(s). Here in Charlotte they used to use the NC National Guard CP Freq and under callsign "Omega" I think it's changed in recent years. So it all depends. As far as the local traffic control, they use 123.025 a lot of the time but I have heard them on some other freqs. All standard helo or unicom freqs. Here in Charlotte Concord regional helps out a little but the traffic local to the track is on 123.025.  I hope this helps.
