Very timely request -- as from the ARRL is:

To celebrate the 54th US Armed Forces Day, the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine
Corps and Coast Guard are cosponsoring the annual Military/Amateur Radio
communications tests on Saturday May 8. While Armed Forces Day is May 15,
the Armed Forces Day on-air special event will take place a week earlier to
avoid conflicting with Hamvention 2004, May 14-16. The event features
military-to-amateur crossband voice operations and a digital message
receiving test, with the text of the message prepared by US Secretary of
Defense Donald Rumsfeld. URL:

Is anyone hearing MARS activity (the military affiliates, not the planet)?
I never hear anything on the freq's I have.
