[Jeff Haverlah]

2359z 31 Mar 25

No known message traffic from the NCS from 2310z 30 Mar 25 until...

     11175.0 was active at 1601z, 1639z, 1700z, and 1730z with HONORABLE
(NCS HFGCS) broadcasting the "standing by for traffic" statement. Nothing
heard at 1800z.

Between 1600z and 1800z:

HONORABLE was active with the following 30-character EAMs:

1609z HJE6RA
1615z HJM3ZA
1618z HJYWR4
(That would fill their message queue).
1625z 7A4G66 (30 characters; different series)
1636z HJ57DU (followed at 1639z for standing by for traffic)
Quiet afterwards except for the standing by for traffic h+00/h+30 windows.

Probable two hour event window with the message traffic in the first hour
window. No NCS restoral repeat broadcasts of the initial 3 HJ strings (or
any other string).

No known message traffic for the remainder of the UTC day.

8992.0:

1727z & 1729z: LIFE BUOY (weak) calling and working MAINSAIL, interrupted
by the 1730z standing by for traffic.

1731z and 1733z MAINSAIL calling LIFE BUOY with no known responses.

There were no obvious airborne assets at the time visible on ADSB mapping
sites.
