When reporting activity on any of the spectrum hole frequencies in our list, be sure to pass along any info that can help identify the user and frequency usage. Also let us know if you want your catch listed here and how you want to be identified. This list is valid for ITU Region 2 only (North/Central/South America). Other areas of the world have their own bandplans. Note: Any frequency below that is bolded should be watched very closely and those marked with an asterick are our highest priority frequency monitoring targets.Our highest priority spectrum monitor list currently consist of the following frequencies (from parts 1, 2 and 3). If you hear anything on these frequencies below please notify me as soon as possible. High Priority Spectrum Hole frequencies: 233.600 252.300 252.600 277.300 293.900 and 298.200 MHz.

Frequencies in bold are priority frequencies to monitor.
And some input from our last spectrum hole list (part 3) posted on this blog on 25 Oct 2006 from a source which wishes to remain anonymous.
These first three frequencies date back to the 2003-2004 timeframe. I have little info for the frequencies as the transmissions were either brief or weak.
277.825- pilot to pilot with basic check-in on frequency with brief status of aircraft calls.
278.825- some very weak aerial combat manuevering type transmissions here
284.550-very brief aircraft comms that went unidentified.
Now for the active ones out of the list.
278.650- this is an active air/air frequency that I have listed for Eglin since the first contacts were the yukon, nomad and mozam flights believed to be flying out of Eglin. However I recently heard Suds flight giving the"gear" call and then switching to button 2 (tyndall's tower 384.4) for landing there. It has been active over the past couple of years though.
291.825- Heard throughout 2005. First contact was Spade flight working with project going through different flight maneuvers for project. During the flight a Rhett flight refueling tanker came up and the Spade flight worked the tanker's boom on this frequency. Several different flights used this frequency during 2005, but haven't seen activity on it since around the first of this year.
298.025- Another project/chamber frequency. First heard viper flight working with project going through different flight tests. On 11/15/06-Bat 1, Widget 48, Chamber/Project were working "range clear" and then into drone launch/shootdown/and recovery comms here. This frequency used since March of 2005. Note on 298.025-This frequency was paired with 314.4 which at one time was used with 287.2 which I heard refered to as Eglin Safety. I believe they were also using Eglin's range frequency of 379.3. Heard it mentioned and there seemed to be some kind of telemetry signal on the channel. Also they were said to be working on H.F., but I never found them on any of the standard air force frequencies I had in my radio. At one point the H.F. frequency was said to be 338.4! Not sure about the decimal placement but heard nothing on 3384 khz. Within the last couple of weeks the 395.125 frequency that was abandoned for the Tyndall inland range frequency was being used by Darkstar in a mission with the Yucca flights I have listed out of Eglin. I didn't have time to try and find the other frequencies in use and just noticed the 395.125 was active and listened in for a few minutes.
