Patuxent River NAS Frequencies

NOTE:
This list is still being worked on. Use what's here but I'll be adding frequencies over the next few weeks. Many of these frequencies can be heard in the Mid-Atlantic States. If you're scanner near the shore from the Baltimore, MD area down through Norfolk/Oceania, VA area you should hear lots of activity on these frequencies!

I've marked in bold frequencies which I've actually heard activity in June, 1999. These only include the UHF Mil freqs since that is what I usually listen to. Please don't discount the other freqs as not being active, its I just haven't listened to these.
