[MilCom] GOLIATH in Southeast

[Larry Van Horn]

Interesting freq 279.725 MHz. My only USAF assignment is an AETC Interplane 
for aircraft based at Columbus AFB MS. Definitely the first time I have seen 
an AWACS on this one. Maybe your Yeager flight was out of Columbus and that 
is why they were using this one. I didn't have any Columbus aircraft Mode-S 
intercepts yesterday afternoon so they were probably out of my box range 
(out to 150nm plus to the west - south).

Only E-3 I had yesterday afternoon before the storms hit is listed below 
shortly before 4pm.

Dead on his heals was an E-4

And right after that

Also had a Peach E-8 right after the Tacamo.

The skies over Btown were busy yesterday. ;-))) For what it is worth I've 
posted my complete Mode-S logs up on the Milcom blog (address below).

73 and good hunting,

519PM Local:
Currently hearing GOLIATH working on 279.725with YEAGER flight and 236.7 
(Atlanta Center at Crossville). I have never heard AWACS use 236.7 as a 
discrete. 279.725 is very strong at about s-7 and the comms on 236.7 are 
very weak and not moving the S meter. Anyone else hearing this can add to 
what I am hearing? Possibly two separate AWACS?
