I have had a request for information on frequencies in use in East Lancashire. If you live here you will have no less than 5 different sectors above you! They are as follows: (incidentally 'FL' means flight level eg. FL290 means 29,000ft on the standard altimeter setting of 1013.2 millibars or 29.92 inches of mercury)
The first three sectors are Manchester controlled sectors as follows:
NORTH LOW surface to FL165 Freq: 125.1
NORTH HIGH FL165 to FL195 Freq: 125.95
S29 (or sector 29) FL195 to FL285 Freq: 118.775
Any or all of these may be 'bandboxed' together on any of the frequencies quoted when traffic is light.
The Swanwick controlled sectors above these are as follows:
S3 FL290 - FL330 Freq: 129.1
S4 FL340 and above Freq: 131.05
again these could be bandboxed together depending on traffic levels.
Hope this info is useful, please keep the questions coming, however I am off to the sunshine of Rhodes on Saturday 15th October for 1 week so after Friday I will not be posting next week. Thanks all.
