iFly GPS Forum

So I'm flying along and I want to contact the nearest FSS. I don't know the best frequency for the area where I am flying. Is there a way to access this information on my 740b iFly GPS? I have searched through the User's Manual without finding a way to do this. My Garmin products all have a Nearest function that is selectable for type of information desired. The Nearest function on my 740b shows Airports and some other filterable data but not included in the filter list are ATC/FSS facilities or frequencies. I know I can select an airport to get the apllicable frequencies for that airport. Needing to pull out my paper Airport Directory while flying single pilot w/o autopilot can of course be done but it should be piece of information easily available on my Navigation Device.

Yeah, it'll be very nice if it happens.  In the meantime, I used the Sketch highlighter tool, with it's "fattest" setting, and I highlighted all the communication boxes in my state and the part of the states nearby, because it's hard to pick those boxes out a lot of the time.  As a sidenote: even though I fly in Vector map mode most of the time (which does not show the comm boxes), the highlighting still shows if I have Sketches turned on.  So I know that there's a comm box, and I know where to look, and I just switch to VFR (sectional) map mode briefly to see it.
