Hi all,
an early morning look over the fence here around 06:30 found the following two parked close to each other...

2472 Lockheed C-130M Hercules 1º GTT Brazilian Air Force
130607 Lockheed CC-130J Hercules 436 Sqn Canadian Armed Forces

Regards,

Takes practice, you'll get there :)

My personal opinion is not to scan more frequencies than you need, otherwise you may miss things :)

Skywatcher,
Cauntlet = Gauntlet
Camforce = Canforce (CANadian airFORCE)
Why would reporting Kittyhawk be inappropriate?

if rwy 26 is now 25, rwy 08 will be 07. Opposite end of the compass.
