Boomer freqs are also the ones you call "AAR Control" in other topic.
Besides you are missing for instance 306.400 which is commonly used nowadays. also 315.825 to name another one.
246.100 is not a Boomer freq but a CAOC 2 AAR Monitor
303.00 to my knowledge is "Thirty Thirty" Which is a common USAF A/A, not boomer
Last but not least I am personly unfamilliar with 297.500 & 299.200

Here in the States we have, oh, maybe 75 air refueling areas/tracks and AFAIK each one has its own specific primary and secondary UHF frequency. Boomer and receiving aircraft both normally use primary. Clearance with center is commonly obtained on VHF. Thus there are many frequencies involved nationwide.

Here is a Link to those AAR tracks + Freqs in USA: http://www.milaircomms.com/refuel_tracks.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; although outdated believe it was still current.

Right, Joost-that map has been a nice aid in understanding what I have been hearing on my scanner over the years. I live under AR631, which mostly has AFRC and ANG training activity.
