Narrative:
Normal approach for landing at troutdale (ttd). Called tower 3 times from 10 mi, 7 mi, and 5 mi with no response. My WAC and flight guide were out of date and I was using 120.5 instead of 120.9. Announced straight in landing on runway 25 3 times on 120.5 and landed. Then contacted ground on 121.8 and was directed to parking. I purchased new sectional at the FBO and realized my error.
