Frequencies for Antarctic comms:
8867 - Air-to-Ground. ICE flights will talk to Auckland Radio on this freq. when they have departed Christchurch and until they get to 60 degrees south. 9032 - Air-to-Ground. This is the most likely active frequency you will hear. You can hear Auckland Radio talking to "ICE" flights. Also McMurdo Station uses this frequency "Mac Centre". This freq used for 60 degrees south onwards to Antarctica. 11256 - Air-to-Ground. Secondary frequency. 5276 - Air-to-Ground 5100 - Air-to-Ground McMurdo Station: 4770 - Ross Island and Dry Valley Field Parties. 5400 - Scott Base Field Parties. 7995 - Remote/South Pole 11553 - Remote Field Parties Palmer Station: 4125 - Secondary United States Antarctic Program (USAP) Field Parties, Palmer Station 11553 - Primary USAP Field Parties, Palmer Station Other freqs: 4718 13251 6835 (AM mode) 57275 261.75 MHz (This was given to me by another WUN list person. It is in-the-clear, satellite downlink freq, FM mode. Apparently Christchurch Radio uses this) 14243 kHz (This was given to me by dxAce. Apparently there's an amateur station that is sometimes active). I personally have only heard traffic on 9032 kHz and 8867 kHz, including ICE flights, Auckland Radio and "Mac Centre". Antarctic Field Parties are required to check in with "Mac Ops" (McMurdo Station) each morning at 08:30 local time (20:30 UTC) on the frequencies listed above for field parties. The field radios are 20 watts output, so good luck hearing those! Perhaps you can search the WUN archives to see if anybody has heard any of these other frequencies active. (Or maybe anybody reading this can verify or correct my info?) Mark. Auckland, New Zealand. (via WUN) ============================================== dxAce Michigan USA |
