There has been some milair traffic associated with the Middle East crisis passed on the new RAF TASCOMM net (Info first presented here July 7, 2006). Watch for activity from Cyprus:
Cyprus

Frequency (USB mode): Channel 1 - 4742 kHz (a) Channel 2 - 9031 kHz Channel 3 - 11247 kHs, Note: (a) H+15 weather broadcasts, when active.
Keep a real close watch also on the JCS HF-GCS primary 11175 kHz USB as the RAF Cyprus station has used this frequency in the past crisis.
