This post from milcom may be useful for those DLRers near Edwards and in socal who want to monitor the drop. Hello Brian & fellow MilCom'ers, Here is a small list of frequencies that I was able to put together from Keep your ears open or callsigns like "NASA-8" or check-in with ZLA of "NASA X-43 "Hyper-X" Launch NASA Flight Test, Air-to-Air, FRONTIER Control & LA-ARTCC 123.125 NASA T-38 interplane (nationwide) 128.625 NASA/NOAA Research 132.15 ZLA [28] Pacific offshore (all altitudes) 262.8 Edwards Mission 237.0 NASA Flight Test 268.0 Edwards Tactical 121.4 Vandenberg FRONTIER Control 263.8 Pt. Mugu PLEAD (Range surveillance) 266.9 "BEAVER Control" (North) The ZLA airspace for the FRONTIER, PLEAD and BEAVER warning areas is defined The Edwards frequencies & NASA Ops may be used on the ground, and I have come Jay Mc Kee

Mexican border, and costal points inbetween. Sector #30 frequencies may not
be used by the test flight & upport aircraft in this event.
up with few air-to-air frequencies, especially for UHF. If anybody can come
up with some confirmed air-to-air mission frequencies for this test flight,
I'd sure be interested in getting them!
