Is he your GA instructor? You seem to have been aware of the area frequency only after doing power training. You are entitled to your opinion but Reg is not the sort of person I want having anything to do with my life or having any power over me in any way, shape or form. CASA people at least have the excuse, thin though it may be, that they are making a living. There's no excuse for volunteer overseers with any power beyond friendly advice.
