Narrative:

On duty for 9 hours 15 mins, tired. Distractions with deicing, snow, jump seat rider who had fellow pilot killed in crash in detroit few hours earlier. Expected runway 27, got runway 18. Had read departure before taxi. After takeoff could not get departure. We had been given wrong frequency. Missed the turn at 1.5 DME off ILS. Departure queried us asking if we were on a noise abatement heading. We said no. He said 'ok' fly present heading to intercept outbound course. We did.
