262.125 Mined Hostile Camp in Colombia

Some very interesting comms being relayed on UHF SATCOM (262.125 MHz) from Colombia, which sounded like some type of military or security operation centered on locating and approaching a heavily mined (“minado hasta el hijo de putas”) hostile camp (“Campamento Bonito”). The units can be heard discussing movements and positions and sounded like they were trying to find a safe, unmined entry path to the camp, which they believe exists because the enemy typically avoids mining main paths. The danger of the area was emphasized by specific reference to a house at coordinates 5-57-33N 72-11-28W, from which hostiles had previously shot at a friendly helicopter when it entered the zone.

Here is some audio of the intercept.
