1) Only a limited number of CTAF frequencies, so its very common to have aircraft landing at different yet somewhat adjecent, uncontrolled airports on the same freq.

2) CTAF frequencies are listed so you know which to use.

3) At aiports that have towers that are closed, then they will usually use the tower freq as the CTAF.
