MWARA

From The RadioReference Wiki

MWARA is the term for Major World Air Route Areas, which support HF Radio communications to aircraft outside of VHF range.

All frequencies listed are in KHz (USB mode). Groups of frequencies in one region are often referred to as 'families'.

For worldwide listing by families with maps, see the Atlantic page for the Atlantic routes, and for the Pacific, polar and Mexican routes see the Pacific, Polar and Mexican page from the Collins website. These pages also contain charts with up to date LDOC (Long Distance Operational Control) frequencies
