Heathrow ATC Online ?

[Demonsiege]

Hi does anyone know a site what enables you to listen to ATC by streaming it on the net ?
-Thanks-

If you mean London Heathrow then no.

Occasionally people in the UK stream such things but it's usually short-lived due to it being illegal to monitor the majority of radio traffic here unless you hold a relevent licence.

Ok thanks for the info. But one more thing if I purchase a airband radio and stream onto the ATC would it be illegal. ?

Yes. Even if you do have a licence that allows you to listen to the ATC comms to stream them would not be legal.

For a basic guide to the law regarding usage of "scanners" in the UK see: http://www.ofcom.org.uk/radiocomms/ifi/enforcement/ofw156x

This discussion would be better continued in the UK section as it is not "general scanning"
