Anyone going this weekend to the airshow this weekend at Terre Haute?

The U.S. Thunderbirds will be there, with a practice on Friday, and public
shows on Sat and Sun.   You can guarantee they'll be using 141.85 or 143.85,
plus one or more UHF mil freqs., plus probably a 413 freq or two for ground
units.

I'll be there at the field on Saturday afternoon.   Try giving me a call on
FRS channel 6, PL 29, if you want.   I'll also be around both Fri and Sat
nights.   Contact me direct at [email protected] if you want to compare notes
beforehand.  I'll be enroute by 6am Friday, so please contact me by Thursday
evening.
