Airline business frequencies are not licensed to individual airlines (except for a few very old licenses). They are licensed to ARINC d/b/a ASRI, or some form of that name depending on how long ago was the last renewal or modification.


There's all kinds of individual airline frequencies listed here on RR for DTW (Detroit Metro)
Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) Scanner Frequencies and Radio Frequency Reference .
If what your saying is true, we need to delete a lot of frequencies

Yeah, I think the helicopter contacts Windsor CACC who then dispatch the land ambulances. I used to hear the helos on 413.6875 but haven't heard that freq lately either. The 150.100, Windsor Twr & Fleetnet seem to be the ones to monitor .

The license holder does necessarily not refer to the user of the frequency. Dave is referring to what you'll find if you search the FAA database.

Yeah OK so what you're both saying is that there's no point searching for 129.275 because even if South West Air is using it, they probably won't be listed on the license info. OK. Thanks guys

I should of been more specific when I said the ambulance was talking to dispatch. They were talking to WIN CITY dispatch, not the CACC but just correcting the TGID I heard. Hearing it for the first time, communication seemed a bit disorganized but they didn't appear to be in much of a rush so maybe it was a patient transfer and not a big emergency.

Tilt - I know there's a separate tgid for WIN CACC but for all intents & purposes, all the dispatches on both regional towers and the various Tacs and spares are all part of WIN CACC (Central Ambulance Communications Centre) .I think someone heard something on that id once and was just trying to be helpful. So the helicopter comms come into a console, where an operator then dispatches the call on the WIN tower.
I wouldn't suggest anyone delete the CACC id until we identify it (probably a spare)

Thanks Papillon, I'm still new to listening and learning so its good to know what the TGIDs are. I don't think I've heard much on that one yet but only been listening recently for a couple months. Been without a scanner for a year or more so can't remember but won't be deleting it for sure. I'm high up and usually have the helicopters fly close over my apartment so I hope to catch them again. I thought it was a Coast Guard helicopter at first but it was dark and only heard it and saw the lights as it passed close by heading toward the airport from the river. I'm still working hard on trying to correct errors and verify things for the listing here. Just trying to build my own database of frequencies and listings for the first time also, so this post has helped to sort out some unknowns for me for sure.

The CACC talkgroup is generally used by out of town ambulances to contact the CACC.

There's a folder in each radio with every CACC channel in the province. A travelling unit can quickly contact an out of area dispatch centre by using the CACC channel.
