The Brush Creek MOA is in southern Ohio.  The STING flight is STING 21, 
22, 23 & 24.  The tanker is JEEP 53, I believe.  Sorry about not 
including that location information.  Also, the yagi antenna I'm using 
has been up for going on 14 years & shows no noticeable signs of 
weathering or damage.  I put up a new discone & ground plane in late 
summer, but kept the yagi because it was still in great shape, after I 
initially put it up in 2002.  I ran new coax on it, cleaned it up a bit 
& put it right back up.  For anybody interested, here's a link to SAMCO 
& to the SAMCO Yagi model 360.  They'll cut the antenna to whatever 
frequency or frequency range you need.  I have no direct connection to 
the company at all, other than as a satisfied customer:
