[FedCom] 141.225 FM

[Jeffery R. Smith]

Yeah, I considered a UAV and even discussed it with another Monitor I was
online with. I heard nothing in the context of the comms that rules out the
possibility of it being a UAV. 

The only problem was/is that if it was some kind of UAV mounted comms
repeater. I should heave been able to hear to Ground side of the RABBITS. So
I set up a search scanner working most of the Federal/MIL VHF bands and came
up empty handed there. I guess they could have been encrypted but HAWK sure
wasn't.

I live about 10 miles from WEBSTER field were a lot of UAV work is done. So
yes that is a possibility but one of the locations mentions was a Chevron
Station. There are none of those in this county so they were well away from
Webster Field.

I have not reviewed the audio from these comms so maybe that might reveal a
clue. Hope so anyway. 

I got to be honest. Listening to this situation is boring as heck. "RABBIT
01 move 1 mile north next to the Chevron Station. HANGUP, REDIAL, SWITCH
PHONES, CALL BACK. RABBIT 02 move ........." This went on and on for hours
today as well as yesterday. Very clear, short, commands. No feedback,
discussion, or other comms whatsoever. Boring as heck but interesting when
there is a goal of figuring out who they are.

I wouldn't rule out Hawk being airborne strictly on a time basis is it 
could be a UAV.  UAV's don't require strong kidneys. ;-)
