Just got back from TPA after purchasing a house there. Will be moving anywhere from the 5th to 15th of NOV. Home is .5 mile off the Approach to RWY 18R and .25 miles to the left. GREAT SPOTTING LOCALE.

Is the sun facing you or behind you? Makes ALL the difference in the world.

We may have to get together when I am at home in Sarasota some time. As for the frequency stuff you were looking for, I have been slacking on it and will still do what I can to get it for you. 119.65 is pretty active though during the day. That is Tampa Approach for the south side.

Freq wise I am pretty set with hiss. Amazing where I wound up(since I love Hot and Humid weather and Airline stuff) in Tampa and Underneath the Approach to a nice Major Aiport. My wife has been saying oh no ever since seeing planes over the house at 500 feet. We did drive over the Susnshine Skyway Bridge and back up 75 into TPA . What a cool bridge. Only thing freq wise I am trying to nail down is if there is a super high over 125.05 in the Valdosta area and 128.075 over Seminole if there really is a super high over 135.625 Gainsville as I have heard from other sources. When I was there the whole 4 day's last week 135.625 was FL 240-600. Someone did say 135.325 however is a super high over this sector. Must say also a nice amount of WN TRAFFIC THERE(colorful planes)
