CYOW
« on: May 03, 2007, 11:09:09 AM »
Hi again... Can someone please look into the CYOW feed? The ground control freq is missing again... I don't know if this is intentionally turned off when it gets busy on the net, but clearance delivery is still being scanned... so you end up with aircraft checking in for their clearance... then you miss their taxi to the runway, and catch them on the runway again for takeoff... if the feed provider is going to remove freqs, then I would recommend removing clearance delivery instead of ground... However, ultimately, I think that all four freqs (clearance delivery, ground, tower and terminal) that are normally being scanned in this feed, is just perfect... so PLEASE put ground back up if it's been knocked off...

Also, (and this one's for dave), do you know why CYOW doesn't have any feeds in the archives (it's not even in the pull-down menu...)

Just to add to my last comment... I just double checked and it's definately missing... a flight just landed and you hear tower switch them over to ground for the taxi, and then there's just minutes of dead air... nice...

Also, you get guys contact clearance, and the clearance controller tells them to contact 121.9 when ready to taxi, and then there's dead air for like 10 minutes sometimes until suddenly miraculously they appear on the tower freq (118.8) ready to depart...

I'm hearing ground control perfectly now.

I like your website there too romeoyankee (www.cyow.ca). Lots of interesting stuff there for area users.

Cheers

Hi guys, sorry I haven't checked in in a few months, but CYOW sounds great now, and ground is covered as well. One thing I'm confused about though is what freq are you actually scanning for ground now, because further up in a previous post you said it was scanning 121.9 instead of 121.8 but ground at CYOW is supposed to be 121.9
