I dont know anything about aviation monitoring I admit. Anyone have what freq's they are on? I see the big list but are they on just a few? And could I pick up in Bellingham?

123.325 was what they were using. Not sure the air to air for the two chase planes.

I can hear them here in Bellingham on 123.325 with a strong signal. Both chase planes and 787 now.

Yep, Mark nailed it. I thot main flight freq would be 123.475 but it definitely 123.325. The http://www.boeing.com is relaying FAA ATC radio comms, but NOT the Boeing company freq traffic.

I'm not listening to all the news stations, but shortly before I turned off TV coverage, it seems the TV folks are not aware of the issues going on with problems of the anti-icing system and that they are trying various circuit breakers to get another cone deployed.

The SeaTimes tweet also shows no awareness of what is going on on 123.325. Have any of you heard media talking about this? In other words, any indications that some of the media might be listening to 123.325?

Well, I sure blew my thots that they might not fly today! Is anyone streaming 123.325 comms onto the Internet?

Just got back from the test flight. Was on the grassy knoll in front of the Hilton. Hands down the best spot to view the test flight.

If they are having de-ice issues, freezing rain over here (Geg) at 2000 ASL.
