Subj: Syr. Ang 174-Tfw Conf: (24) Scanner Ra
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I'm an Air Force Forward Air Controller (FAC) stationed at Ft
Drum and I think I can help you guys out. Just for reference
at Fort Drum there are actually 2 ranges. Range 35 which is a
scorable air to ground range run by the Air National Guard (ANG)
and the main impact area that's used for live ordnance. Those
missions are controlled by Active Duty Air Force FACs assigned
to the 10th Mountain Division. The ANG also operates the Forward
Operating Location (FOL) at Drum. The FOL is used to quick turn
A10s (The runway at Drum can't take an F16 those are turned at
Griffiss AFB). The Range is about the only one on the East
Coast that can be easily used for live air to ground missions.
We have fighters as far away as Georgia coming to the Range
to drop. On any given mission as many as 3 radios are being used
at once by fighters. They are in contact with the GCA at Drum,
the FAC or Range Controllers and one radio to talk to each other
(fighters fly as a minimum of a two ship). We also do work with
C-130 outfits to do air drops and assault landings at Drum.
Callsigns that are used are peacetime assigned and don't
change. Armed with that figuring out what's going on is pretty
easy. Range 35 always uses "RANGE 35". 174 F-16s always use
"COBRA" followed by a 2 digit number. The 103 & 104 Fighter
Squadrons (A-10) use a myriad of callsigns some examples are
"SHARK, HOG, DEMON, SAINT, FREIGHT, PIG PEN, etc". Out of
towners are usually unknown until they show up at the range. But
the callsigns are pretty much the same. The Forward Air
Controllers use "COMMENTARY, ALPINE, GRIFFIN & ICEMAN".
 

USAF Air Operations

Back to the table of contents
The USAF uses several nets and over the past few years they
have changed and combined. There is a system called Global
Command and Control System (GCCS) in place for keeping track of
all airlift and tanker operations worldwide. The system is
composed of HF stations located all over the world. Some are
part of the Mystic Star Network (Presidential Support) and some
are part of the now defunct Strategic Air Command while others
are run by remote control from stations hundreds of miles away.
For example, the Loring Maine station is remote controlled by
Macdill AFB in Florida which use HF radios referred to as PACER
BOUNCE. They are manufactured by Harris Communications of
Rochester NY and are state of the art with digital tuning, VOX
controlled phone patches, computer interfaces, etc. and use the
best antenna system for an outstanding, reliable system.
The system uses all the same basic frequencies but the call
signs vary. MAINSAIL is the generic call sign for any of these
stations, HILDA belongs to Air Mobility Commands (formerly
Military Airlift Command) Operations Center at Scott AFB IL.
Most of the other call signs such as Andrews, MacDill,
Loring, etc refer to that particular station.
Calls for SKY KING are for the old SAC alerting system. The
messages are nothing more then encoded message traffic. A lot of
what you would hear are weather updates, ETA updates, etc and the
system is only occasionally used by ground stations. The best
time to listen for that is when an operation is going on.
(Thanks to Bill Staab for this info, which I've taken almost
verbatim from his text.)

Listening to Fire and Ambulances in Jefferson County

    If you  live  in  Jefferson  County  and listen  to  fire and
ambulance traffic  a lot you  may wonder  what all  those numbers
mean.  Say, for example, that you heard '21-91 out at 14:23'.
    The first number,  the 21 in this case,  means the village or
town the unit is from.  Look at the list below - you'll see 21 is
Felts Mills.
    The next set of numbers are broken up.  The next number, 9 in
the example,  stands for  the vehicle  type,  look below.   The 9
stands for an ambulance.  The next number, the 1 here, stands for
the vehicle number from that area.
    If the  town or  village had  another  ambulance it  would be
'21-92'  which would stand  for the  second ambulance  from Felts
Mills.
    Other counties  may use  other methods.   The missing numbers
below are for future expansion.  The next numbers, after the 'out
at' is just  the military-style time the unit  was out of service
at.   If the number is over 12,  just subtract 12 from the hours,
in this case the time was 2:43 PM.
    You may want  to buy a map of  Jefferson  County  and tack or
tape on the number corresponding  to each village or town's fire/
ambulance department.  If you don't have room for a large map you
can use a small one or  even a home-made one.   Also, it helps to
keep a list  of the numbers  followed by the  villages and  towns
 (like below) nearby for
quick reference.
    If you hear the dispatcher  or a unit say there is a '10-10',
then this  means  there  is  a full,  confirmed  fire  under way.
This can also be called a 'working fire'.   '10-9' means there is
no fire or that it is out.
    About the 453.8125 frequency that you hear 46.180 repeated on
sometimes;  according  to a  local fireman  -  "Jefferson  County
inherited the equipment that was the "Orange Phone"  EMS Resource
system.  This equipment has now been used to set up the two tower
system now used for fire communications.  You could probably hear
traffic on some other nearby freqs,  although they don't see much
use..."

Police & Customs

    If you're looking for tactical, 'secret', or 'special' police
frequencies don't expect that they'll always be listed in an FCC
database of licenses under the 'POLICE' designator, of course.
    Try looking under the  local government  freqs.   They may be
using these (illegally)  or even the  input frqeuency  of a local
gov't repeater.   Maybe even  another frequency  not listed under
ANY license for your area.

    The below codes are the  10-codes suggested by the Associated
Public Safety Communications Officers (APCO).  Your area may have
more then these or some of the below codes may be different.  The
best way to find out is just to listen.
    A 10-code with a '/' before it means it is an unofficial APCO
code used by some police.   A '*' means that I've heard this code
is used in this area.   Locally the police don't  seem to use the
'10' in the code very often.   For example,  an officer might ask
for a 28,  not a 10-28,  for Vehicle  Information.   But the code
11-92 seems to be used in full.

     Zone 5 - BCI
     Zone 7  Parks & other agencies

  Other agencies which  use the  State Police  radio  service are
designated as 7D units with two digits if they are a state agency
such as  park police.   The park  police  also use  the Sheriff's
department but use their 7D-## call numbers when doing so:
   7D-10, 7D-15, 7D-16, 7D-17, 7D-18, 7D-19, 7D-20, 7D-21 (boat), 7D-50

   Villages that use the radio service are designated  as 7D-3#
units: (Some villages use both)
    7D-270-273   Phoenix PD
    Carthage - 7D-310, 7D-311, 7D-312
    Adams - 7D-301, 302

    Pulaski - 7D-340
    Sackets Harbor - 7D-380

    US Border Patrol unit 451 - 7D-511

  The portable radios used by the  state are designated as 6D-3##
units and do not have much range.  Base portables such as the one
at Alex Bay carry quite well.
  The DEC  also uses the  state  police from  time to time.   The
units are  designated as  7N-6## units as  Jefferson County is in
Region 6 of the DEC.    The last three numbers also appear on the
license  plate  of  the  vehicles.   They  also  have  their  own
frequency but  it is  used statewide  with repeaters.   It offers
little information to listeners.

                               Customs
                               -------
   There is a repeater for customs in Ogdensburg and one for Alex
Bay  (the repeater itself is in Watertown).   'Sector' is acually
the base in  Florida,  Alpha  units are  Agents/Law  Enforcement,
Charlie units are communications specialists, Delta units are the
Contraband Enforcement Team,  India units are Inspectors.   Every
once in a while you may hear Lima units, which are aircraft.
