8.9330 USB AERO LDOC AIRLINE COMPANY CACTUS AIRLINE

Early today heard Catus callling in and talking to ground, airliner very clear and strong signal, and Ground a little on the weak side but clear audio.

I also caught 'Cactus 66' and 'Cactus 16xx' around 0600 EST, although on the regular vhf band. Any more specifics on the cactus callsign?

Sorry I have nothing else to add, I was busy with something else and did not catch most of the conversation, I just had time to lock onto the frequency.

Cactus is the callsign for US Airways (formerly America West).

8933 kHz is an ARINC HF LDOC Facility frequency. Here is a chart with the others.

Thanks Brandon, I should have googled it first, could've answered my own question!
