     11175.0 was active at 0229z with BASS HORN (good levels with
noisy audio, later fading to weak/audible) working OFFUTT (good to
poor levels here) for a phone patch to a common DSN 939 number.  The
ground party was id'd as POST STAMP.  POST STAMP always had BASS HORN
at poor/broken levels and did not appear to be able to complete the
connection.

     BASS HORN attempted to have OFFUTT relay a request to POST STAMP
to have POST STAMP "QSY to frequency CHARLIE ECHO."  At 0245z BASS
HORN requested that POST STAMP meet him on "HF frequency 10.060".  A
few minutes later POST STAMP changed the freq to "6?97" (believed to
be 6697.0; too weak in the noise to make out the 2nd numeral.)
Nothing heard here on 6697.0 [a common TACAMO EAM xmsn freq.].
