Stick to assigned freqs or, as peter
has mentioned, 123.45 is considered to be a common chat channel.


Which is just a common misconception. 123,45 is no more a designated
air-to-air frequency then anything else. The FCC has 122,75 and 122,85
authorized for air-air and air-to-ground on private airports. 123,02 is
for helicopter air-to-air.

123,45 just "stuck" with a lot of pilots because it's easy to remember.
Check 4-1-11 b) 2) in the AIM.

Cheers,
Jens
