Great timing! Yes I caught the 1882 traffic on a recording also. So you also use an adsb receiver in combo with monitoring. Same here, fun stuff.
I do often monitor the air bands when running an adsb receiver. And yes, it is fun stuff!

UPS 129.900
There is an awful lot of traffic on it for it to be restricted. I hear casual chat almost daily.123.45 WAS restricted to use in "remote oceanic areas." I don't think its use is legal over CONUS. In fact, I think some commercial pilots have been jammed up over its use.

I guess I wasn't clear with my question. I was wanting to know if the frequencies I quoted that are listed as being used by different airlines, are already in the Radio Reference database. I looked using Sentinel and could not find listing that named individual airline frequencies.During a recent wildfire here in Southern California (Riverside County) 123.45 was used extensively. It was a smaller fire but everyone was on 123.45, fire, media and others!

Therefore, I was inquiring if I needed to add them either to the database or a favorite list manually.

Jon,Aren't air freqs assigned by airport or control tower rather than airline? I haven't done a huge amount of air monitoring, but typically hear more than one airline on a given freq for an airport or corridor.

Jon,
The frequencies I am asking about are company frequencies used between their respective aircraft and offices and service personnel. I can hear them on my icom 5100a's airband when I scan with it.
But, not on the SDS100 because those frequencies are apparently not in the RR database.

The airline company frequencies are all managed by ASRI (formerly ARINC). They are the frequency coordinator for the frequency ranges 128.825-132.0 and 136.5-136.975 and almost all of those frequencies are licensed to them.I'm not big into air monitoring either but the way I understand it what I hear is there are indeed frequencies used exclusively by certain airlines.
I don't know if they would show up in a FCC search but I have seen some FCC licenses issued to business in the civil air band.
Thanks for the info! I never realized how many licenses exist(ed).The airline company frequencies are all managed by ASRI (formerly ARINC). They are the frequency coordinator for the frequency ranges 128.825-132.0 and 136.5-136.975 and almost all of those frequencies are licensed to them.
Usually you can't tell by the license which airline (or other user) a particular ASRI frequency belongs to.
