A note,
most of this information is interesting, but I find it hard to hear
any meaningful military communications, |
|
|
|
|
|
|
I
guess if you listen LONG AND HARD you will find something, good luck, |
|

Military
Long Range Aeronautical Frequencies |
|
U.S.
ARMED FORCES GLOBAL HIGH FREQUENCY SYSTEM IS NOW CALLED |
|
The
High Frequency Global Communications System (HF-GCS). |
|
|
|
The
High Frequency Global Communications System
is a network of |
|
single
side band shortwave transmitters of the United States Air Force |
|
which
is used to communicate with aircraft in flight, ground stations |
|
and
some United States Navy surface assets. All worldwide receiving and |
|
transmitting
sites in the HF-GCS system are remotely controlled from Andrews AFB. |
|
|
|
PUBLISHED
FREQUENCY LISTING - HFGCS stations operate on “core" frequencies |
|
to
provide increased "Global" coverage. The published frequency
listing does not reflect |
|
complete
system frequency authorizations. These published frequencies will be used |
|
for initial contact, EAM broadcasts, and
short-term phone patch and message delivery. |
|
Other
extended or special services will be moved to each station’s available
"discrete" frequencies. |
|
|
|
You
may hear highly encrypted or coded voice transmissions at times that make no
sense |
|
whatsoever.
Just be patient. Military and national security at work! |
|
|
|
HF-GCS
stations tend to operate in the aviation bands clustered around 5, 8 and
11/12 MHz, |
|
although other frequencies
are in use. |
|
|
|
The
primary HF-GCS voice frequencies are. |
|
4724.0 KHz, 6739.0 KHz, 8992.0 KHz, 11175.0
KHz, 13200.0 KHz and 15016.0 KHz |
|
Primary
HFGCS Frequencies 24 Hours: 8992 and 11175 |
|
Back
up HFGCS Frequencies Day:
13200 15016 |
|
Back
up HFGCS Frequencies Night: 4724 6739 |
|
|
|
In
addition to the HF-GCS, U.S. aircraft frequently use Military Affiliate
Radio System (MARS) |
|
HF
stations (13927.0 KHz) and Canadian Forces HF stations (11232.0 KHz) to relay
messages. |
|
|
|
Although
transmissions are often single sideband, the use of the ALE , a type of
digital transmission mode, is more and more common. |
