[Jeff Haverlah]

0015z  06 Apr 08

     11175.0 was active at 052239z with (sounded like "apscot" or
"abscot" 21; weak/often unreadable) working OFFUTT (good) for a phone
patch to maybe TRAVIS.  Discussion appeared to be over dumping fuel
over water or returning to base.  Aircraft was instructed to take
relayed instructions from "USS BOAT" but to return to base and orbit
awaiting further instructions.  At 052347z REEFER 16 (or sounds like;
weak/fair) worked OFFUTT for a radio check and gone.  At 2350z a very
weak (unreadable and in the noise floor; maybe SNOW DROP) bcst an
unknown EAM string (probably LLJ3IF).  Suspected TACAMO PAC.  At
052356z an unknown player (missed callword; good levels) called
unknown party with no response and quiet.

     15016.0 was active at 0010z with CONCLAVE (fair levels but with
deep fading) bcst the 21-character EAM LLJ3IF and simulcast same on at
least 11175.0 (weak/mostly readable) with nothing heard on 4724.0 and
8992.0.  At conclusion of his EAM he bcst his "standing by for
traffic" statement.  H+10/h+40 activity.  Suspected TACAMO LANT with
new day callsign.  (Nothing heard earlier at 052340z.)
