Can't hear all transmissions - including from tower
« on: December 07, 2016, 12:58:04 AM »
Hi everyone, I've listened to streams here before but this is my first time on the forums.

I recently flew into an airport which is streamed here, but when I went back to find the recordings in the archives of when I was there, I couldn't hear them. I know the frequency I was on gets picked up, because I recognize some of the traffic and calls from when I was there. I know that flying low or out of range of the scanner will cause transmissions to not be picked up, but I can't hear the tower's calls either. I can only hear them for aircraft higher up, not the aircraft closer to my altitude.

Any help or insight is appreciated, thanks!

What airport did you fly into?  What day and about what time did you fly into this airport?
