And now they're using early model F-16s. Why am I suddenly beginning to feel old?

There are two 'NULLO' QF-4 flights planned out of Tyndall AFB next week, the jets won't return, which suggests live warhead testing rather than just ballistic shots. That will leave just 3 QF-4's at Tyndall, these will then transfer to Holloman AFB (to join the 22 already there) for ultimate demise sometime during 2016, that will then be the end of the QF-4 drone programme.

Pretty soon we will have to go to Iran to see any fly, but they may not appreciate folks with long lenses and serial number logs books.....

Doesn't the Collins Foundation fly an F-4D?

There does seem to be a number of Iranian Spotters out there. Sometimes they catch F-4s at Tehran International.
