[MilCom] USCG MH-65s using UHF FM Digital Voice

[Mac McCormick III, KF4LMT]

Last week I heard MH-65Cs from CGAS Savannah begin using the Coast Guard's
VHF NET frequencies, including NET 113 (163.1375 - P25 Digital Voice) for
the Savannah, GA area.  Today I found two MH-65Cs using UHF FM P25 Digital
Voice on 413.000, which was referred to by both the helicopters and Sector
Charleston as "CG 410" or UHF Ch. 410."

 

This is definitely a time for those of us who live in areas with USCG
activity to start looking beyond Marine VHF and HF for communications from
USCG air and surface assets.
