The few frequencies I listened to were rather boring. It's a great educational aid, though.

The site isn't working for me, it doesn't give me any options, just wants me to go to some other sponsored sites.  Oh well

LOW........on the left, near the top, you'll see a search box. then under that, a light blue box. click on "liveatc audio feeds". this'll give you a page with the world map. click on the god ole USA, then you get a mile long page of avaiable airports.

from the home page, look on the left side

Make sure you register on the forum so you can listen to the ATC/Aviation Audio Clips. 

Look for the JFK ground/tower clips, those are always best, it will also give you a clue as to why Kennedy has such wicked delays.  Also look for "Boston" John, he's the coolest controller on the east coast.

I listen to KCOS on my scanner. Military flights come in all the time for refuel. Last weekend a whole squadron of uper hornets came into runway 120. Pattern goes right over my house. The raptor on tuesday was awesome. Those new engines have a very distinct sound.
