For example:

"Gatwick delivery, frequency 121 decimal 950 is closed. Departing aircraft are to make first contact on ground frequency 121 decimal 8" (or something similar)

But we don't care what the closed delivery frequency is!! It's hardly rocket science what the ground frequency is either... Worse still it prints all this out as well wasting my time reading through the nonsense while trying to find the real piece of information.

"Delivery frequency 121.8" would be better. Just coupling them so 121.95 patches through to GMC when GMP is closed, as they do almost everywhere else that's civilised, and taking all that out completely would be even better.
