Product Description
Product Description
First published in 1992 abc Air Band Radio Guide is an indispensable guide to the complexities of air traffic control communications. For many thousands of aviation enthusiasts part of the fascination of their hobby is the ability to listen in to the radio transmissions made by the air traffic controllers and the aircraft under their control. This highly popular guide has now been thoroughly updated, and it examines in detail, but in a straightforward manner, air traffic control in the UK, the technology involved, the equipment available with an analysis of various features and what to look for when seeking to acquire such equipment, airfields, radio frequencies, the nature of the transmissions that can be heard, antennas and high frequency radio. In addition, the book also includes comprehensive appendices that provide an airfield directory (which lists all the up-to-date frequencies for each of the airfields covered), the ICAO four-letter airfield codes for British and major overseas airports, the ATC reporting points and radio navigation aids, airline call signs, weather broadcasts and worldwide high frequency coverage.

I've bought previous editions of this handy, pocket size book and I'm not disappointed in the least with the latest up dated publication. Nice to see the addition of colour into the book and the author always keeps it simple for technical dimwits like myself! A must have book for anyone interested in airband radio, aircraft and how our crowded skies are protected by the folk who work for air traffic control.

I looked around and found this publication with the ABC logo. As an old trainspotter I knew that it would contain a lot of information that was simple and well written. Although I am having to come to terms with my scanner the basics are in the book with plenty of callsigns and frequencies. This is a good item to start on.
Listmania!
