KRNT feed broadcasting ground only
« on: December 12, 2014, 03:47:54 PM »
KRNT (Renton, WA) is my home airport, and I frequently listen in from home or office.  The last several times I've tuned in I can only hear communication on the ground frequency.  Depending on the staffing and workload in the tower, I believe the outgoing tower frequency transmissions are sometimes also broadcast over the ground frequency (makes it easier for one controller to manage both frequencies).  So what I hear on LiveATC is all communication on the ground frequency (ATC and aircraft), plus ATC transmissions over the tower frequency.  I cannot hear any transmissions from aircraft on the tower frequency.  And when they get busy and have a separate controller working the ground frequency, then only the ground communications are heard.  I know in the past I was able to hear it all, but not over the past month or so.

BTW, love the service!  Keep up the good work  :-)
