Actually, he gave him the frequency for Sound Aircraft Services, the major FBO on the field. During the summer (and especially on weekends) they usually have someone on the radio to give weather, wind and other advisories on an informal basis. HTO is a pretty high-volume field during the summer (it could probably have a tower, but residents won't allow it), and a great deal of the traffic are uber-VIP's flying in to their weekend getaways; so as a service, Sound keeps a guy or gal on the radio to help things run a bit more smoothly. Which begs the original question: how does a non-local learn such non-trivia? - Andrew
