And depending on the interpretation of Englishal's comment - if I were in a remote area and not talking to any particular airfield - I would ALREADY be on 121.5
Good point, but what I was thinking of is a situation like I have experienced in California, where you can be talking to SOCAL and they tell you that radio contact MAY be lost and if you haven't heard from them by XXXX to call YYYY on 123.45......Not good to change off tracon frequency just in case, but also comms not guaranteed.
