Addressing TRSA controller

Post by Sidney Schwartz »

If I'm contacting Palm Springs TRSA, how do I address them? Palm Springs TRSA? Palm Springs radar? Palm Springs terminal? Something else?

Thanks much. While we're on the subject of frequencies, the frequencies given for Socal approach in this case are:

126.7 9000 FT - 13000 FT 135.275 8000 FT & BLO
251.1 8000 FT & BLO 370.95 9000 FT - 13000 FT

How are the 251.1 and 370.95 frequencies used? None of the comm radios I've used in FS9 can tune those.

Those are UHF freqs for military aircraft. It's not a FS9 issue, it's an issue of VHF vs UHF. Use the VHF freq and ignore the UHF freqs.
