Rescue 65 (aircraft) contacted USS Kitty Hawk on 156.8 Mhz this arvo and then went to 156.475Mhz to discuss entering a air space near the carrier ( carrier unheard by me here in Bunbury ) then i lost comms all together as they went to another mentioned frequency of 35954Mhz ? - Did'nt sound correct to me, i tried 359.540 Mhz and i did'nt think 3.5945 mhz would be corrent as thats the 80M ham band but i could'nt hear anything anywhere and nothing returned on 156.475Mhz again either. I did'nt try 35.954Mhz...

Is Rescue 65 the RAC chopper cause I've just come back from Jandakot and saw her put down at about 1750hrs. Nice landing given the wind factor down there to! I think she was refuelling before departing later tonight.
