I caught the attached scanner audio clip today between 12:30 and 14:30 local. Towards the end you can clearly hear the mission aircraft identify as "KNIGHT 2" (presumably an F-117) upon RTB to Area 51 on Groom Control UHF. The pilot states that he is not very familiar with the approach pattern. SABRE 41 (N661BA) does weather recon and mission support with a system referred to as "panini" being turned on and off.

That answers the question whether the F-117's are flying out of Area 51 while the TTR runway is being re-paved.

Frequencies:
SABRE 41: 126.150 & 126.600
KNIGHT 2: 236.500 & Groom Control
