    This is the new feed list:

    124.650 Dublin Departures Control
    121.100 Approach
    118.600 Tower
    119.550 Dublin Approach (backup)
    129.175 Dublin Centre North
    126.250 Dublin Centre South
    118.500 Dublin FIS
    121.800 Ground

    I think this list is sufficient for me. Not intrested in ops as much as its not really a proper ATC talk.

    Regards to weston, most of their traffic can be heard on 118.5 Dublin FIS, which is a goodfrequency too.

    So does this mean that Ops is now going to be seperated from Ground/Tower/Approach and Delivery?

    To think that a few weeks ago we had no feed and now we've two, fair play to all involved, it's appreciated.

    We gotta find the feed supplier first, maybe then we can work out a system.

    Yes it is me but the reception is not as good as I hoped. I have made a new antenna tuned to 120Mhz and will be putting it up this weekend and replacing the coax while I am at it. The antenna I have has been up there for a good few years at this point and the weather has taken it's toll on the setup.


  • Registered Users Posts: 593 ✭✭✭Dublinflyer


    Can I also say to all to please be careful if you are going up on the roof of your house. It's higher than you think and safety should always come first. Take your time up there, make sure you have the right ladder for a roof and don't take chances. As much as everyone is thankful for the feed I think everyone will agree that it's not worth an injury or worse. I am lucky in that where I have my antenna it's kind of safe as I am standing on a flat surface but still have a harness as it's a height.

    Health and Safety rant over....carry on :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,072 ✭✭✭Mech1


    Feed going down for a bit, new antenna going up.

    What does the woman on ground control(?) mean by"hold the bean"?!!
    And what do the pilots mean by "requesting..... And information echo"?

    And what do the pilots mean by "requesting..... And information echo"?

    It's hold ABEAM it means taxi along a certain route and stop when X Y or Z is to your left or right

    Requesting means ASKING

    Information Echo is the ATIS designator or Automatic Terminal Information Service which is a recorded transmission containing that sounds like this. "This is Dublin information echo recorded at 1800z wind 270/5kts runway in use 28 ILS approach, present weather visibility 10km or more cloud few 900ft broken 3200ft temperature dew point QNH etc etc etc and any other pertinent information for the pilot" it's about 90secs long and is recorded every hour normally or half hour if the weather is unsettled or more often if the pressure changes or visibility changes or runway changes etc. pilots usually listen when the passengers are loading or before they start descending to land.

    Very clear transmissions....... thanks a million :)

    Dingle berry, let me know when your listening and I will feed 30 sec or so of the current ATIS so you understand a bit better.
    Pat.


  • Registered Users Posts: 726 ✭✭✭Shamrock231


    The pilot operating the radio on that Pro-Jet (?) flight has the WEIRDEST voice!!! :eek::confused::pac:

    op's gone,
    clearance gone,

    118.500 Dublin FIS
    121.800 Ground

    Lads, this sounds like a daft question, but are all of these frequencies included in the feed or do I need to tune into them :o

    Also, what is the "Ops feed" and what do they talk about? Once I know I will vote :p

    They're included, you just listen.

    Ops is the frequency pilots use to communicate with the operations center, ie for mechanical issues, or any info they may need such as the stand number before they land.

    I remember Mech1 had the feed for the high winds there in April. I remember one EI (after failing to land) cursing a bit and then telling someone to book a hotel for him and first officer.

    Came back on two seconds later saying "oh and the rest of the crew aswell" :pac:

    What frequency would that have been on? It was very entertaining!


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,072 ✭✭✭Mech1


    I know what your all thinking!!!












    I bet she's Gorgeous.:D

    That'd be Aer Lingus Ops Frequency.

    Keep that bad boy so! Just listening now, clear as day reception. Great stuff...

    What's FYR's callsign? Sorry for all the questions.

    There's absolutely no way you would be able to bluff your way into an ATC job. I'd be all like "....errr you've got clearance Clarence, what's your Vector Victor"
