Well, There was a TABOR 31 and 32 flight which took off from Bangor, ME
and went to W-102 off the coast of Maine.  They did a bunch of simulated AWACS
work using the callsign COWBOY for AWACS.  While in W-102, they just called each
other TABOR 1 and 2.  Found two freqs they were using:

282.700  Simulated AWACS (COWBOY)
140.025 AM Air to Air

also worked Boston Center on 290.500 for transition to and from W-102.

Interesting they were using a Coronet callsign.  Wonder if that is their 
usual callsign from their home base.  Don't know what type they were.
I'm guessing either F-16 or F-15.  Much talk about fuel and wing tanks,
center tanks, etc.  When they were done with the fuel talk, they would
get back to simulating bullseye target, etc.

Other interesting thing is that they were using a very common secondary
AR freq up here of 282.700  Wonder if that is part of their normal freqs where
they are from.

So, anyone have any idea who these guys are?  They RTB back to Bangor 
when they were done.
