AERONAUTICAL RADIO, INC (ARINC)
(Services available for aircraft engaged in international flight)
ARINC using Pacific common air/ground ATC frequency networks shared with other ground stations are listed below. The
frequencies in use will depend on the time and conditions which affect radio propagation. International flights on the
ground at ANC or within VHF range of the SEA–ANC network that are entering the NOPAC Route System within Anchorage
Centers FIR boundary should contact ARINC on VHF 129.4 to obtain primary/secondary HF frequencies and verify SELCAL
before entering NOPAC. If unable 129.4, primary/secondary HF frequencies may be obtained from Anchorage ARTCC, but
no SELCAL is available.

SSB capability available on all HF freqs. (a) Extended Range VHF. Coverage includes area within approximately 200 NM of
the Hawaiian Islands and along the Hawaii–Mainland US tracks extending outward approximately 250 NM from the HNL,
SFO, and LAX areas. (b) Call ARINC on 129.85 VHF to arrange HF checks. 129.40 available for enroute communications on
SEA—ANC routes. _(c) Users are reminded that all transmissions on the ARINC HF SSB LDOCF must be in the single
sideband mode (upper sideband only). Phone patch service will be available as a normal part of the service.
Communications are limited to aircraft operational control matters. Public correspondence (personal messages) to/from
crew or passengers cannot be accepted. Refer questions to ARINC operations at 1–800–621–0140.
Aircraft operating in the Anchorage Arctic CTA/FIR beyond line of sight range of remote control VHF air/ground facilities
operated from the Anchorage ARTCC, shall maintain communications with Gander Radio and a listening or SELCAL watch
on HF frequencies of the North Atlantic D (NAT D) network (2971 kHz, 4675 kHz, 8891 kHz and 11279 kHz). Additionally,
and in view of reported marginal reception of the Honolulu Pacific VOLMET broadcasts in that and adjacent Canadian
airspace, Gander Radio can provide Anchorage and Fairbanks surface observations and terminal forecasts to flight crews
on request.
