NYC - 1010 WINS and other traffic inputs

[emcomm]

I was listening to some hams the other day and one said he has "the three big" news agencies plugged in--that is their input frequencies, so he hears the traffic reports every few minutes.

1010 WINS is on the ONES
880 is on the EIGHTS

and the other one I missed..........

I was trying to find these frequencies, does anyone have them?

This page may help, but I remain confused: NYC Media Related Frequencies

thanks!

Ch.2 chopper IFB: 450.2875/107.2. Assignment Desk:450.350/107.2 [repeater]

By the way, Ch4 and 5 share the same chopper [4's] and Ch2 and 11 share 2's chopper. Ch7 can still afford to fly a chopper of their own.

I have a couple of freqs for Fox5 on my list here. I know I've heard at least one of them active for Fox5 but never confirmed which of the 3 it was.

Emcomm,

2 Freqs I always have in my scanner are Fox 5's heli (skyfox) 450.850 pl 179.9. They are always up and active, as the provided chopper coverage for channels 4,5, and 9.

And the other, is 450.8125 67.0 which is CBS radio 880 heli, I believe you will hear the shadow traffic helicopter as well as CBS 2 and Channel 7 ABC on that as well
