> Ok just when I thought 254.2 was explained and the mystery was solved, This happened. I currently have the that same
Calgary Alberta approach controller on 254.2 right now, BUT I am hearin the aircraft answer him back. The VHF side is
gettin in the sat now. I hear the civilian aircraft on VHF answering the controller.  I have never heard of a airport
rebroadcasting all of the VHF side on UHF before. The only thing that is usally similucasted is the controller on UHF.
Any ideas anyone? I got this all recorded as always.

Jody,
I hear ZSA(Seattle center) simulcasting VHF on UHF quite often during times of high traffic. Every once in awhile I here
civilian VHF traffic on UHF but it never lasts very long. It's like when the controller realizes that it's going out on
UHF it gets shut down.
