Narrative:

Received ATC clearance from lfcd clearance on 121.8 at the end of runway 16R. Awaiting takeoff, confirmed it was the elba 5A departure SID. Main runway in use was runway 25. We had to use runway 16R because of being too heavy for runway 25. Runway 25 departures use elbp 5B. Runway 16 departures use elba 5A. When airborne, flying the 5A departure, control asked if we were turning left. They said we were intercepting runway 291 degree radial of the 5A departure. They said we should be on the 5B departure. I informed him we were given the 5A departure. He said 'roger.' nothing more was said.
