[MilCom] SALTY 31-34 heading home

[Ted]

Interesting report. We had previously confirmed 395.800 as a UHF air tac 
channel for the Springfield F-16's. We stopped by Abe Lincoln Memorial 
Airport over the weekend. Only one Illini F-16 was there and he was getting 
pushed back into a hangar while freshly fueled, possibly for motor 
maintenance - which will be the new role for the base in Springfield. Do we 
have a confirmed date for the big switch from IL ANG to IN ANG for this 
squadron? I couldn't find anything official on the web. Gee, I'll really 
miss these guys! Happy Scanning! - Ted
