Question 4

Flight Service Station Frequecy

Answer 4

Universal - 122.2

Refer to VOR listings.

Note: If there is an R after the frequency it is a receive-only frequency. You will talk to flight service on that frequency, but you will listen to the VOR’s audio channel to hear Flight Service’s responses.
When you call Flight Service using one of these frequencies make sure your nav radio is tuned to the VOR and the voice channel volume is up, and let them know which VOR you’re listening to as opposed to your location.
In this example if you were contacting Flight Service on 122.1 the call would be New York Radio, Cessna 12345, receiving on Hampton VOR.
