It was jumping when I first tuned in about 1800, but seems to have died off a bit. I think they may have been tracking a specific target, the pilot(s) sounded more intense than usual. Loud & clear in east Hemet area with just a mobile antenna sitting in the windowsill.

Obama visiting Rancho Mirage? Wait a minute! I never imagined he would wind up in the Palm Springs area. I would see himself in the four major metropolitan areas of Cali, but in Palm Springs area? Never thought that would happen.

271.00 is active this morning. Hearing Bigfoot, Bluto 33 & 34. I just watched a fighter attempt to force down a Beechcraft Bonanza directly over my house. Fighter made several passes trying to read the tail # off the plane. Plane eventually landed at Ryan Field, jet took off to continue CAP duty.

They are now refueling from a tanker. Never heard this much activity on a NORAD freq. I guess Obama is good for something after all
CAP is up

Obama is coming back to SoCal this afternoon. It is likely that 271.000 will be active again later on today.
