Narrative:
Atx X departed norman, ok, and was turned to a heading for on course which would take the aircraft close to tinker AFB and departing aircraft. I was training a developmental and another position was combined with ours. There were aircraft on frequency -- military and civilian -- so frequency congestion was a factor. As X approached tinker AFB, military Y a heavy E3 departed tinker sbound and conflicted with X. 1.7 mi and 700 ft vertical was the separation between the 2 aircraft until course divergence was established. Air traffic position were combined at the time, 4 different frequencys were in use -- I was training a developmental.

Title: ATX X HAD LTSS FROM MIL Y A DEP.
Narrative: ATX X DEPARTED NORMAN, OK, AND WAS TURNED TO A HDG FOR ON COURSE WHICH WOULD TAKE THE ACFT CLOSE TO TINKER AFB AND DEPARTING ACFT. I WAS TRAINING A DEVELOPMENTAL AND ANOTHER POS WAS COMBINED WITH OURS. THERE WERE ACFT ON FREQ -- MIL AND CIVILIAN -- SO FREQ CONGESTION WAS A FACTOR. AS X APCHED TINKER AFB, MIL Y A HVY E3 DEPARTED TINKER SBOUND AND CONFLICTED WITH X. 1.7 MI AND 700 FT VERT WAS THE SEPARATION BTWN THE 2 ACFT UNTIL COURSE DIVERGENCE WAS ESTABLISHED. AIR TFC POS WERE COMBINED AT THE TIME, 4 DIFFERENT FREQS WERE IN USE -- I WAS TRAINING A DEVELOPMENTAL.
