   This past Thursday, the airspace configuration around Miami, Ft Lauderdale 
and Palm Beach was changed dramatically: new freqs and new approach NAVAID 
fixes.  For example, MRLIN Approaches are gone.  Some of the new NAVAID Fixes 
are:
FATHR
FISEL 1 Approach to Ft Lauderdale (from FATHR)
HILEY 1 Approach to Miami (from OSOGY)
MIMMI
OSOGY
TOOMR

   One new Miami Center freq being heard is 126.95 (as noted by Mike Comer).
   According to conversations between ATCs and griping pilots, Jeppersen 
Charts have not caught all of the changes.  Miami Ctr ATCs characterize the 
changes as "very dramatic," and "totally reconfigured."
   Another recent change: A new computer for Daytona Approach eliminates 
having separate computers for Melbourne and Daytona Beach traffic.  One 
consequence is that Embry Riddle acft can now use either N###ER or Riddle ### callsigns, 
regardless of where they are flying. They used to be limited to N###ER 
callsigns when in the Melbourne area.
