Scan 442-443.00 on nfm as they use tetra phones and as well as Checker you will get other company stuff and airline desks.There's no set freq now,it used to be 455.575
Only the AFS still use the 455 series with Heathrow Fire on 455.65 / 121.6

In the sense that they are individual 'phones' in vehicles and handsets,if you tune into 442 you'll hear them ringing each radio.

Yeh the freqs are multi user on the scanner so sometimes there a lot of 'waffle' in between the ground ops.
