Re: Swanwick ATC frequencies (LACC)
AlanM, You should listen to some of my coordinations at work!
Matt,
I can understand you being able (legally) to listen to ATIS, beacons etc but you might be hard pushed to defend listening to 121.5 if you got caught. As a general rule, D and D have got this one covered. So it could be argued that this is not for mass reception. If however you lived in the back of beyond, Aus, you could claim that it is for mass reception.
To be honest, I don't mind anyone listening in. Hey, I hope you all enjoy my dulcet tones. Quite frankly, I think the breakthrough from taxis etc etc is more of an issue.
As an aside, How many people use iTrips in their cars? These are illegal as well but many more people probably use them than airband receivers!
