Had traffic on CG 164.9125, actually kinda busy, considering I
never heard any traffic on this frequency before.
7AM local:
CG 22598 clg NY, for a radio chk, Station NY responds, 22598
asks NY to go secure, scrambling follows.
Within the next 1/2 hour, several more chk-ins for radio chks;
"840" - radio chk
"497" - gives position 4029xxN/ 073xxxxW - "over land"
"85" - passes message "T.O.O.T.S.E.R." spelled phonetically,
I'm guessing the name of a vessel?
then no more til 1000AM local, when Sector NY comes up on 157.1
to announce there's an exercise XX miles south of Sandy Hook NJ.
I guess that's why the busy period.
Also had a lot of scrambled traffic on 418.75, strong, from first finding
it at 1114 local until at least 1140 local. Very busy.
