Hi Guys,
Huge apology in advance if I am asking a stupid question...
129.550 mhz was to me the Luton Radar frequency with 128.750 and 132.550 being uses for approach/director and tower....so at about 4am this morning and dropping off at Luton Airport , 129.550mhz came to life with the controller calling himself Essex radar and confirming runway 22 , then in next transmission, same voice telling a Wizz Air that he was x miles for runway 26.
So does something happen overnight whereby Essex radar and Luton combine ?
Hope its not too much of a newbie type question !!!
Thanks

There are times when Luton approach and Essex radar are combined, especially when it's quiet. There have also been staffs shortages recently in this ATC sector.
