THanks for answering. You confirmed what I thought. This listings under ATC/AI is not much help for me to get the right freqs. Putting in KSFO returns 4 ATIS and 2 Tower freqs, only 3 of which match up with whats on the radios. KOAK returns 1 ATIS and 4 Towers, of which only 1 matches up with whats on the radios. WHere then can I get the right freqs??
Thanks so much for patience with a newbie.

This is the way I understand the freqs
Nav 108-118Mghz this includes vor,loc,glideslope,ils.And the general rule
with this is the ils
freqs are between 108-112Mghz and the vor freq between 112-118.So you could
for example
assume a freq of 109.50Mghz would be a ILS freq while a freq of 114.80Mghz
would be a VOR
Comm 118-and up are communication freqs with 120.5 more than likely the
tower freq for the
airport.
ADF 100-1000Khz<--Note not Mghz.These by and large have been replaced by
VOR.
I must admit I did not know about the ATC/AI-frequencies selection but after
having a look
it would appear that not all the frequencies for any given airport are
displayed in this window.
If you start with the default Cessna and have a look at the radio panel you
will see that the freqs
set in the Nav1 and Comm1 windows are KSFO freqs while the freqs in the Nav2
and Comm2
windows are KOAK freqs.Also notice that the ILS freq for 28R(111.7) does not
appear in the
frequencies box in ATC/AI.
