See AIM Chapter 4, Air Traffic Control, Table 4-1-3 "Other Frequency
Usage Designated by the FCC". I'm looking at the 2007 ASA FAR/AIM
publication.

Quoting the FAA's Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM), 123.300 and
123.500 are listed for "Aviation Instruction, Glider, Hot Air Balloon
(not to be used for advisory service)."

Cindy Brickner at Caracole Soaring, California City, had a similar
issue with 123.3 recently and apparently got it resolved.

Cindy, over to you?

Does anyone have the FAR section as well for this. We are having
similar problems with an FBO that serves business jets and they all
call in from 20K feet to let them know they will be in 20 minutes,
check on rental cars, etc. Spoke politely to the owner who I could
tell was going to do nothing so it is time to speak to the FSDO in the
region.

its not in the FAR's, the frequency assignment comes from the FCC.
FSDO would be a good place to start though, referencing the AIM
section that Burt mentions.
