[MilCom] Atlas 38 on HF

My list shows ATLAS as belonging to Air Transport Group (ATG) HQ Trenton. 
That's an old listing, and I haven't personally confirmed that. 

Recently (within the last year) I have heard ATLAS and seen ATLAS reported 
a couple of times, and those few times it has been the CC-130's doing SAR 
training. 

So, my best guess is that ATLAS will be one of the Transport & Rescue 
Squadrons, either 435 Sqn out of Winnipeg, or the 424 Sqn out of Trenton, 
both of which fly CC-130's.

If anyone has any better information, I'm all ears.

Rob
