The Civil Traffic usually talk to the Zone on 123.400 or 123.408
but thay some times will talk to App on 118.425 or the Tower on 119.225.

We all use phones... very rarely radios.. only when asking permission to cross runways etc.

although there are frequencys on our radios available to use. but the radios are so bad quality.

Ground Stations (non-aircraft) won't use that however, they'll use a 'Sturno' (sp?) frequency; Which is the ones Liam is describing with the poor quality transmitters.

Ok I have heard the MAG's on the freq before.

They do use 129.475 as ops, for example the DC-8s ask for their bay, a start crew, weather etc through VHF Ground. I remember someone finding a few low freq ones that were for ground units. 55.00 or something like that?
