[MilCom] Savannah, GA to Warner Robins, GA Road Trip

[Mac McCormick III]

I took a trip to Warner Robins today to visit the Museum of Aviation
and to do some monitoring of Robins AFB.  Using a BC250, BC780,
BC796, DJ-X10T, and FT-8800 I monitored military frequencies and
systems along the way.

One note on the Robins AFB TRS:  Unless your intent is to monitor
the ALC, you might want to lock out most of their TGs.  Otherwise,
they are almost all that you will hear - they are the most frequent
users of the system and are always active.
