Artcc zid 125.125

[vocoder]

Did the artcc zid freq change for the indy area, rushville hi alt sector? I have 125.125. Is there an equiv? Maybe switched inbound flights from florida to another control site/sector?

Thanks

Yes, changes are all around us. All central Indiana ATC is now Indianapolis TRACOM (Indy Ap/Dp @ Indy Tower).
125.125 not found in FAA file ARTCC Facilities (AFF) 01/30/2020 for any artcc.

Slight image off of a valid freq.?

(I should have also said) You might listen to the freqs listed for Indy ARTCC at Indianapolis. Pilots would be given Ap/Dp freqs for Indy TRACON.

I usually monitor ZID89 IND-IH on 133.425 and I have ABS-B so I'll see if I can track some A/C going into that sector and see what freq they are assigned.

I just heard American 1216 just NW of Shelbyville and Air Wisconsin NW of Muncie on 125.125 Hearing both sides; Sky West 2992 told to contact center 119.550. AC calling are calling "Center" on this freq.

According to FAA Doc's the use here would be under Subpart O, Airport Control Tower Stations. I can't find any user outside Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW). Several 125.xxx freqs are used by ZID in OH. (The other use is under Subpart S-AWOS/ASOS) So keep listening, you may hear something that helps.

I'm hearing traffic on 125.125 also. Indy Center working FedEx 3211 and an American. However, they were westbound near Terre Haute. No where near Rushville.

This freq, 125.125 is listed in our database under zid too. I've heard it being used on flights i was a passenger inbound from florida. But now, it seems not used as much as it was. Maybe they combine sectors like they do late at night.
Also, has been handed out by the previous sectors in the flight path.

The combining of sectors / light loads also leads to periodic simulcast on military UHF according to the lady controller I talked to. 125.125 is hitting like mad right now MASH 81 / 82 block 260 270

So that's the key, its an NTIA assignment. That's why its not in the FAA file. Ah So

Giant 3000 switched to 125.12 as it crossed Greenwood going SE at ~ FL150 descending. I was in the other room so guessing they came over from 124.950 as I use one radio for KIND area and satellites and the other for transients/ upper levels.

Does anyone have the freq comming from the se to north or northwest, before 125.125?

Thanks

I am thinking, has to be 133.05 , 128.375 , or 134.275
Looking at the charts, cannot really tell for sure
And then there are those unpublished commercial approah freqs
Enroute to 125.125 from the se or south

Thanks to all that are working on this with me!

I found an old hand made map of Indiana that I populated with frequencies. Unfortuantely it looks like a drink was spilled on it and it has faded; note the lower right corner, 126.925 just outside Florida. Everything listed was heard from my location just north of the State Fairgrounds. I need to make a new one.
ACARS went even farther out but I only plotted voice comms.
