I heard SAM 28000 on Friday afternoon as they were talking to Joshua
Approach in Southern California on 124.55 MHz, inbound to Pt. Mugu. The pilot pronounced the callsign "Sam Two Eight Thousand". Joshua routed them via the Palmdale VORTAC, descending to 14,000 then 7,000 feet before instructing them to contact Socal Approach. That 747 must have an unusually powerful transmitter. The signal I heard was the epitome of "loud and clear". -- Paul Hirose To reply by email delete INVALID from address. |

I've heard them several times over the years on HF and VHF, and indeed, they have some powerful transmitters. Steve Holland, MI Drake R7, R8 and R8B http://www.iserv.net/~n8kdv/dxpage.htm |
