The desire of many of our pilots to separate ourselves from the radio traffic from Merritt Island has resulted in today’s AAC decision to move to 122.725 effective 8/15/19 consistent with the chart publishing schedule.
The last time we tried this we used a frequency that was legal to use as a CTAF, it being a MULTICOM frequency, but the FCC disallowed the publishing of it because they only wanted us to use one of the seven UNICOM frequencies which 122.725 is.
Several of the AAC members have been occasionally monitoring 122.725 and found the traffic to be less objectionable than what can be heard and often not understood coming from another location, presumably Merritt Island.
A publication change request now has to be submitted to the National Flight Data Center. We hope the processing of this change will affect the 8/15/19 chart data.
I will mention this CTAF change plan several times between now and then to remind everyone as well as to provide an alert if things don’t go as planned.
The closest airports currently using 122.725 are:
Valkaria, X59
Crystal River, KCGC
Inverness, KINF
Leesburg, KLEE UNICOM
