Q

Do you have to actively monitor company frequency with SELCAL installed and in range of a Horizon Air station?

A

No. If SELCAL is installed and in range, the pilots are not required to monitor the frequency, however, the radio shall be tuned to the appropriate in range frequency.

If SELCAL Not Operable or Not in Range: Pilots shall continuously monitor the appropriate station frequency when in range of a Horizon Air station. When not in range of a company station, the appropriate ARINC frequency shall be monitored.
