The Atlantic Ocean is sub divided into areas from the north down to 
south and these different areas are used by various stations on both 
sides of the Atlantic .The two main areas are in the north covering 
Iceland down to about level with Bay of Biscay across to New York is 
area NAT-B/C and from that area down to northern Brazil to Dakar is area 
NAT-A.

There is a small sub division of NAT B/C  between UK / Ireland and 
Gander named NAT-F     and south of that a a mall subdivision  of Nat A  
  named NAT_E.

There are radio stations at New York, Gander, Reyjkavik  Shanwick, Santa 
Maria  and the Canaries.

Planes approaching the ocean will be transferred to the  relevant radio 
station by ATC so out of JFK this could be New York or up th coast to 
Gander. Out of the UK it is Shannwick. Once the Oceanic station is 
contacted the planes confirm the flight plan and are given the calling 
and secondary frequency of the station covering the point they leave 
that area.   Planes travelling north south will be given the station 
controlling the area they are transferring to such as Santa Maria in the 
Azores.
The oceanic stations may all have web sites and this is the link to 
Shannon  (Shanwick)
