Uav Notam

I was just curious if any of you all had ever seen a notam for UAV activity. The 800 WX Brief guy seemed a bit perplexed at this one and I've never seen this before either. Some type of law enforcement aircraft possibly?

Lexington KY (Blue Grass) [LEX]: March NOTAM #9 Airspace unmanned aerial vehicle 0.5 nautical mile radius 10 nautical miles on the 053° radial of Lexington KY (Blue Grass) [LEX] .3 1200 / below weekdays sunrise - sunset effective from March 10th, 2008 at 07:59 AM EST (0803101259) - March 10th, 2009 at 07:59 AM EST (0903101259)

I have seen them multiple times here in Grand Forks, they look just like that. Usually a radial off of a VOR and then a small radius at a certain DME.

I get them ALL the time for the area around Marysville, CA at Beal Air force base. They send up UAV's all the time and put NOTAMs out to warn pilots. Every other week theres a 4 hour time block for a 10 - 20 NM radius around the area. Training I guess.

Flying to El Paso, TX from Riverside CA via Phoenix we where told a few times about UAV activity.

I remember one time hearing another plane querying approach as to what had just passed him, and approach responded that it was a UAV.

We have ongoing UAV operations going on around my airport (EWN-New Bern NC) inside the MOA's--(Pamlico)-Also have OV-22's in and around the area operating visually out of Oak Grove--makes for an interesting day of flying--
