Jim,

( snip good info )

Welcome to the world of aviation scanning. My three most memorable
scanning events

1. Attending the Quad Cities are show and hearing the Snowbird and
Thunderbird tactical frequencies during their shows.

2. Driving under the Fechter MOA and listening to some F-16's
dogfighting above me.

3. sad, but memorable - Air traffic control diverting aircraft on
9-11.

-----------------

Hope this helps

My most memorable was, unfortunately, a failure but I give myself
an *A* for effort anyway. Having been to many Moffett airshows
with either a camera or handycam and also received the Blue Angel
audio on my home scanner, I hatched this great plan for both. Mixing
and syncing the results should be easy.

First, the scanner was set up to record the audio.

Next, I took my handycam and kayak and paddled down to
Long Point on SF Bay just off the end of the Moffett runway.

Problem is, it's possible to be too darn close! :-(
