Hi all, I live in the Boston area and I like to listen to VHF aircraft comms. I noticed something odd recently, though: it appears that Boston Approach is using duplex comms. I hear only the ground to air side of the communication on 124.4MHz and then an immediate reply from the aircraft on 133.0 MHz. I found this by chance because I had heard traffic on both of those frequencies while scanning around and finally started switching between them. I had thought that the VHF air band was simplex. A quick web search didn't yield any answers. Anyone know what is going on here?
