        Morning to the group, I have a nagging desire to gain some
knowledge regarding the 197th Air Refueling Squadron. In recent memory,
there has been a couple of times when they (COPPER xx) have had 2 ships
floating around over my area (KFHU). I can copy them fine on the VHF ATC
freq's in this area (124.950 Tower, 127.050 Radar) when they are doing
the pattern work. And of course I copy them when they are @ work over
head (AR613, 305.500, and AR639, 291.900), but on the occasion when there
are 2 ships floating in the pattern (and practice areas), I know that
they have to be chatting with each other... I just don't know where to
begin!

        If someone who is wiser and smarter than I could be so kind as to
point me in the right directions I would be ever so humbly in their debt!
Public or private answer's are most welcome.
