Group: Forum Members Posts: 8K, Visits: 9.1K	I've asked them which is correct. I suspect their digital data may be slightly behind other data, which would obviously be undesirable but no more of a mess than the 8.33 changeover in other countries.

Dear Tim, effective Date for frequency EDQT 119.805 is 26APR2018, you will receive it for the next delivery. ‌‌ Well, their website says that the 119.805 channel is active: ‌http://www.flugplatz-hassfurt.de/navid.11/flugplatzdaten.htm ‌Furthermore the AIP says that changeover is on 1.1.2018, see here: ‌https://www.dfs.de/dfs_homepage/de/Services/Customer%20Relations/Kundenbereich%20VFR/05.03.2018%20-%208,33%20kHz-Umstellung/AIC_VFR_02_18_15MAR2018.pdf

This is what AIP says: ‌ ‌ ‌‌This is the new "channel" which you select in your COM. No one cares about what the related "frequency" is. ‌Here is the full document: ‌DFS AIP In other words: SD does NOT match the AIP.

Get used to the frequency/channel confusion, it will follow us the whole year ;-). I understand that but then SD is at least inconsistent because all other changed airports around me show the new channel in SD, e.g. Gelnhausen (new frequency 123,050, new channel 123,055). Tim, any comment from your end on this?
