Hearing some very weak traffic this morning from Diego Garcia on 13254.

Haven't heard much of anything from them in a number of weeks through
sporadic
monitoring of the frequency so I'm not sure if they just haven't been
using the
frequency in favour of their other discrete frequencies or whether it's
been
propagation.

I still have not heard them as well as I did back in late 2001 when things
were
ramping up for Afghanistan. Perhaps they have some log periodics that were
aimed
back this way at that time?

Hi Steve, Since air bases were established in Afghanistan "the rock" is no
longer part of the massive staging and logistics that were required for
initial mobilization. Glad you were able to confirm it is still operating,
and that is always a good catch, as they are only trying to reach aircraft
in their AOR, not Michigan G.
