Coverage for 120.12 just outside of Chicago?

[jeffcohen]

Hello!  My first time here, so I hope I'm not asking something that's already been answered - I tried to search first as best I could.

I'm learning to try to follow flights from OHare as they travel across the country.  After takeoff, I can sometimes continue to their first departure frequency, but then often lose them as the head south or west on frequency 120.12.  That frequency shows up under the Frequency Search on iOS but the locations listed are very far from Chicago and don't seem applicable.

Anybody have any idea if I'm doing something wrong, or whether there just simply isn't that much coverage right now in the middle of Illinois?

Thanks!

That frequency is a low ZAU sector that handles the south departures from ORD. It doesn't look like there is coverage for it.

When you do a frequency search, every LiveATC feed that has that frequency will be listed.  Unfortunately, the particular sector that you're looking for is not currently covered by LiveATC.
