As a test I just plotted a route from Main Hall Farm (N of London) to Popham (W of London), but am actually west of Guildford (on the ground). Farnborough W shows in the "Frequencies Now" bit. So perhaps it relies on where you are currently located? Tony

Thanks Tim.. that now makes sense as I was at home in north London at the time.
