Before taxi Miami

ATIS 119.15 (ARRIVAL), 133.675 (DEPART): A recorded loop of the field's weather, active runway and any notices, updated hourly or whenever conditions change. Listen before your first call, and tell the controller which letter you have so they do not read it to you again.
ASOS/AWOS 119.15: An automated weather station reading the field conditions aloud — wind, visibility, ceiling, temperature and altimeter. It replaces ATIS at a field with no controller to record one. Get the altimeter setting before you descend below the transition altitude.
Clearance 135.35: Clearance delivery issues your IFR clearance, and at busier fields your VFR departure instructions and squawk code. Call before you request taxi, with the ATIS letter and your intended direction of flight.

Taxi & takeoff Miami

Ground 121.8 (RWY 08L/26R, 08R/26L, 12), 127.5 (RWY 09/27, 30): Ground control owns every taxiway and inactive runway on the field. Call for taxi with your position and destination on the field. You need an explicit clearance to cross any runway, including one that is not in use.
Tower 118.3 (270-089), 123.9 (090-269): Tower owns the active runways and the surrounding surface area. Call before entering the surface area inbound, and hold short until you are cleared to take off or to cross.

Departure & arrival Miami

App/Dep 120.5 (090-269 · DVALL · FOWEE · FROGZ +3 more arrivals), 125.75 (270-089), 132.025 (secondary): One radar controller working both arrivals and departures — normal at a smaller TRACON. The same frequency takes your climb out and your inbound call.

Departure Miami

Departure 125.5 (090-269 · GLADZ · GWAVA · KLADA +3 more departures), 126.85 (270-089 · ALTNN · BNGOS · DORRL +7 more departures): Departure control is the radar facility working aircraft climbing out of the area. Tower hands you off after takeoff. Check in with your altitude leaving and your assigned altitude.

Arrival Miami

Approach 124.85 (270-089 · BNFSH · CSTAL · FOWEE arrivals), 125.75 (secondary): Approach control is the radar facility sequencing arrivals into the area. Call inbound for flight following or an instrument approach, with your position, altitude and request.

Also

UNICOM 123.0: A ground station run by the FBO rather than the FAA, for fuel, parking and airport services. Use it for services. Where the field has no separate CTAF, the same frequency doubles as the advisory frequency.
Emergency 121.5: 121.5 is the international emergency and distress frequency, monitored continuously. Declare on it if you are in trouble, and monitor it as a second radio when you have one free.
