MilAir

Coastal Georgia is home to and near to a number of major military bases and training areas; there is military aviation activity of some sort to listen to every day.  Among what you can hear are F/A-18s, F-15s, F-16s, C-130s, and P-3s. Below is a listing of military aviation and aviation frequencies that can be monitored along the Georgia Coast with an emphasis on what can be heard while traveling on I-95.  It is by no means complete, but it does have the most frequently used and heard frequencies.  This list is a good starting point for radio hobbyists just getting interested in military monitoring and for those traveling through the Coastal Georgia area..  Check the main blog page for monthly recaps that list the most currently used callsigns and frequencies.
