Hey Guys,
I posted this in the feeder forum quite a while ago, but never got any responses. I Hopefully posting this here will get to more people.
I have a problem, that maybe you can shed some light on.
I'll try and explain this completely.
As you know, I feed north and south tower, 133.9 and 120.95 respectively.
A few weeks ago, I was informed that my feed was stuck broadcasting ATIS. I logged on from work, and confirmed this. When i got home, it was still ATIS, but the freq was still on 133.9. Obviously the ATIS broadcast continuously, so it was hogging the scanner.BUT, it was the afternoon, and obviously KLAX was using 133.9 heavily at the time for north ops.Soon as I hit the scan button, it immediately went back to normal scanning of the two frequencies.
I later figured that maybe late at night, say 1am to 5am, they must only use the south freq's and must broadcast ATIS on 133.9 in the mean time.
But, what could cause the freq. to stay on ATIS, on 133.9, during the day, when 133.9 is definitely in use at that time as the North Tower Freq? This has happened at least 10times now, and I'm stumped.

ps. ATIS is usually broadcast on 18.95 I believe.
