Trying to pick up military aviation comms in amongst civil air traffic control can be really frustrating: to start with, there's a lot less aircraft flying around. Their communications with Pearce Approach and Pearce Tower are typically less 'verbose' than the civil aviation comms and to top it off, Pearce's location out of Perth means you really need to be in the northern part of the metro area to receive the most comms.
The other thing about Pearce is that, having a training school, some days (i.e when the students are flying) and some times of year are busier than others.
My advice: if you're after some RAAF 'hits', program in only those frequencies that are 'exclusively' theirs: 118.3, 135.9 etc, and just scan them for a few hours on a weekday. Depending on where you're located, you might hear some traffic, you might not.
So desperate was I a few years ago to actually hear some mil traffic, I put the scanner in the car and parked in Bullsbrook for an hour!
