Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group 406

The problem with relying on airliners is that since these signals are line of sight, and airlines fly so high, they will here them from many miles away and have no to determine direction or location.

The problem with relying on ATC is the opposite.  Since these signals are line of sight and ATC's receivers are on the ground, unless you crash right next to their receiver, they won't hear it.

ATC still monitors 121.5
