They are probably still laughing over the male HF-GCS Op on 11175 from Andy 
that was on earlier in the day passing EAM traffic. I have heard this fellow 
before but it has been some time since I heard him last. Those who have 
listened for a long time to this net will remember him. When he finishes up 
the EAM he ends the transmission with  "Andrews out," and the "out" is 
pronounced in long and unique way. He is very entertaining. Reminds me of 
the Lajes Op we use to hear in the afternoons east coast time several years 
ago that use to be a lot of fun listening to.

The Canadian equivalent to our HF-GCS is the CANFORCE MACS and also has some 
interesting listen. If you want to know what these acronyms are go to the MT 
Ref Library http://www.monitoringtimes.com/html/glossary.html and use our 
handy chart. Oh yes it is free!

Here is a list of frequencies authorized to the Canadian military in the HF 
aero off route (OR) portion of the bands. An (*) asterisk indicates the most 
active freqs used by CANFORCE and a (**) double asterisk would indicate a 
primary comm frequencies. A (***) indicates CanForce frequencies with VOLMET 
style  weather broadcast.

23250*
Anything marked above without an asterisk can be used by CanForce as a 
discrete.

And finally, another place the mil aircraft gather is on the USAF MARS phone 
patch nets (freqs below mode USB).

 4557.1    RK
 7633.6    ACJ
13927.1    ACB (Primary)
14606.1    ACF
18617.1    ???
20992.6    ACZ

Enjoy the freqs and remember to let us all know what you are hearing.
