Oh god another one.

Yes what he said is correct but it is a smart assed comment not answering the persons question at all.

I suggest you too need to re-read the original question.

1/ All VOR's are between about 112.0 and 117.9 MHz, the poster knows that they are NOT Comm freq you tune on the VHF radio tx/rx
Obviously he knows to listen to a VOR he needs to tune the VOR receiver!!

2/ "some" VOR's have a voice ATIS broadcast on their Freq. ( YPDN YMML etc )

3/ The poster was asking how you can know looking at an "enroute" and "terminal" chart that a particular VOR has an ATIS with it.

( Yes we IFR people are aware the ATIS freq are on the top of most if not all Approach charts.)

Simple question really, stupid smart assed comments regarding too low to tune in on a VHF Comm radio aren't helpful to the poster getting a correct answer.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW MATE?
