Aircraft communications from over the oceans can be very boring at times or very exciting!  
   
Along with the use of satellite communications, commercial and military aircraft use   
either the VHF/UHF frequencies when over or near land and switch to   
HF frequencies when over oceans and far beyond line of sight with land based ground stations.  
   
All of these frequencies are not active all the time, so be patient and tune around,   I suggust starting at the 10mHz range then try +/- to 8 or 11 mHz  
   
The aeronautical voice communications stations and frequencies listed  in the tables   
below are available to and utilized by the U.S. FAA Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCCs) for air traffic control purposes.   
   
The frequencies in use will depend upon the time of day or night and conditions which affect   
radio wave propagation especially on HF frequencies. Voice communications are handled on a single channel   
simplex basis (i.e., with the aircraft and the ground station using the same frequency for transmission and reception) unless otherwise noted in remarks.   
   
   
The stations will remain on continuous watch for aircraft within their communication areas,  San Francisco and New York Radio  
and when practicable, will transfer this watch to another station when the aircraft reaches the limit of the communications area.   
   
   
Stations listed below which are designated "FAA" are operated by the U.S. FAA Flight Service Stations. Stations designated "ARINC" are operated by Aeronautical Radio, Incorporated.
