Using different approach frequency at BOS?

[CarCarlo]

Hey everyone,

Recently, seems to have started in May or so, the final approach frequency into KBOS for Runway 22L has seemed to have changed from 126.5 to 118.25, which seemed to have been used as a TRACON of some sort and not necessairly Approach, which 126.5 was and now there seems to be no communications on it. Is this a thing or am I just catching it at the wrong time?

Thank you,
Carlo

Ah yes, I use that website very often but I was just checking here to make sure. Thank you!

Approach plates and frequencies are updated on a regular schedule by the FAA, and it's typically every 52 days. That doesn't mean it will change, but you can check for changes on the airport via many different sources. I like skyvector.com as a pilot.

56 days, not 52. There's also a 28 day cycle.

Oh man, talk about a brain fart. I was tired, you're correct 56 and 28. Maybe I need to do my flight review early...

Well in all fairness, you do say you are just okayish.
