Narrative:
A pilot called me on frequency 128.15. I only noticed this because I happened to be looking down; briefly; from my radar display and noticed the receive indicator lights twinkling for this frequency. I asked on the frequency for anyone calling center to say again. The pilot then called me again and I got audio reception from him. This frequency has had this problem ongoing now for several months.
