Hello,

I have just got my feed working. I am only covering the tower freq due to some poor reception on the other frequencies. As I get the antenna system more stable I'll add more. I'm running this from inside my office at work and the IT equipment generates some EMI.

Please have a listen and tell me what you think:

Good reception of the Tower, but I see what you mean about poor reception of aircraft. As there is already a Montreal feed dedicated to Tower and the Terminal area any chance you would be interested in trying some high altitude sectors ? You should be able to get the controllers on 133.225 and 134.400 loud and clear and as some of the traffic will be on other frequencies via relay you will get them loud and clear as well. Just a suggestion. DJ

Good point, I was not aware that the YUL was back up that's why I posted this one. His feed is alot better. I'll discontinue mine and see if I can get one up for the en-route frequencies.

CYUL, if you can get some montreal centre stuff surrounding the Montreal TCU area that would be outstanding... it would give us a chance to follow flights in from a lot further out and give people a chance to experience some of the early on sequencing into major airports that most people I'm sure never really realize (alot of the stuff happens way before they enter the terminal area... toronto centre feed is pretty good for this as well...) just a suggestion... as for reception... I noticed that montreal in general is much worse for reception for some reason than I'm used to... parked at the tip of the runway today, I heard tower and planes under tower control great, but TCU stuff was just poor at best... the transmitters can't be THAT far from the airport for terminal control are they? (in halifax, when I'm at or near the airport, I get both tower and TCU crystal clear...)

Only a suggestion ......

A Montreal radio set up to scan:

133.225
134.400
132.350

You would have controller reception on all 3 frequencies. 133.225 is the high sector (FL290 and above) to the east, from Montreal to the Moncton/Boston FIR boundary's, and is linked via relay with 123.925. 134.400 is the high altitude (FL290 and above) to the west from Montreal to the Toronto FIR boundary, and is linked via relay with 127.875. This would give you coverage of all the Montreal high sectors in their  southern area. 132.350 is the low sector to the east and covers YUL arrivals from the east via the OMBRE/MAIRE stars, and YUL departures eastbound. These sectors can get quite busy with NAT traffic at times, so any more frequencies would be too much. So ONLY those 3 would be best.

You can hear YUL arrivals from the south via PLB.NAPEE on the ABCOT star, and southbound departures via ALB, on Boston 135.700, good coverage of this sector can be found on the KBTV Burlington Radio.

To the west a radio in Ottawa would be ideal scanning Montreal on 134.975 and 128.775. Both antenna transmitters are located in Ottawa, so controller reception would be good. 134.975 covers arrivals into YUL via SYR/ART.MSS on the FRANX/CEDAR stars and YOW arrivals via ART and MSS on the CYRIL star, as well as YOW departures via ART/MSS and V300-YJN. 128.775 covers YUL departures westbound towards YOW as well as YOW arrivals via YUL, this frequency is also linked via relay with 126.575 which covers YUL arrivals from the north and west via YMX, as well as YUL departures westbound via YYB and YOW departures northbound. Both FL280 and below. DJ

I know I must sound like a pin in here but before my computor crashed I had bookmarked a page that had YUL sectors mapped out and their frequencies. Would anyone remember the site URL ????

I've never seen any websites with Montreal sector maps. I'd be interested as well if anyone has a link ? If you want I could e-mail you a Flight Explorer screen shot that shows the sector boundaries ? DJ

jetscan I would appreciate that e-mailed to me as well... and if you guys find that other URL please post here so I can copy... I've been looking for a while and haven't found anything interesting... I have the paper charts for high and low altitude enroute jet routes, but at work... and obviously, when I'm controlling at sea, I don't have too much time to scan internet sites for interesting things going on at yul or yyz... hehe... I come on here on my time off when we're alongside somewhere and I can get interenet access, to dream and remind myself that I won't be a navy controller for ever if all goes well! hehe... I'm kinda hoping that one day you guys'll here my voice on these freqs in the not too distant future... navy's fun and seeing the world's great, but I'd like to be able to find my house without having to look up the address hehe...

here's my e-mail address in case you guys find that url and those sector charts... kasuto@hfx.eastlink.ca

happy new year everyone

Hi,

I live in Montreal but a bit too far from the airport to clearly receive controllers transmissions (I often move to the airport however). Indeed, it would be great to have some centre frequencies, since we already have a YUL feed enough clear (could be increase, however.. like Toronto heh), we could follow traffic far enough.

Good job  :D
