Very cool radio and sensitive af. That is a pilot radio. Are
you a pilot ?

 

[jcherepy]

No, not a pilot. Just an aviation enthusiast.

Cool, it looks like you are in a great area for that, enjoy
that radio and hobby.

So,....I take it you heard the aircraft on all of those, not the distant RCAG transmissions.

Correct. I had to hear multiple aircraft before I logged the frequency. I did hear the controller on 133.100. It's a high site at about 3200 feet ASL and about 40 miles from my home.

After further research I found this old post, New Atlanta ARTCC frequency that identifies it as being used by the Athens, GA RCAG. Today I rode over that way and parked within sight of the site and I heard the controller loud and clear and heard him direct traffic mostly towards South Carolina. For whatever reason, this frequency is not listed in the database. I also heard the controller direct aircraft to contact Atlanta on 125.625 which is the Owings, SC RCAG - Sector 32 Spartanburg High frequency.
