This should be the standard procedure to handle the map.

 

Hi Lino,

 

I think I find two bugs for ATC freq

Gudauta should be 259 not 359

Mozdok should be 137 not 177

I guess I should have asked -- Where to you install the file to get the map and the beacons working with F-86F. Thanks for your quick reply.

 

Are you trying to get the beacon map to show up on the kneeboard in a plane? If so, check out this thread, then give Tetra some +rep. ;)

Otherwise, you don't "install" the .jpeg file anywhere. You just open it and look at it.

It won't replace the F10 map, if that is what you're after? It's simply a reference map, to be used outside of the sim, on a laptop or a tablet for example.

You are right, sir! I´ll have that corrected in the next revision. Version 1.3 will include also the MiG-21 channel stuff. Sorry for beeing late.

 

Thank you for reporting.

hi guys, where did you get the VORs for this map?? DCS does not model VOR so far and naturally I set the 113.7 VOR as shown in this file and nothing happened it does not exist.

 

any thoughts?

 

 

thank you!

Hi JohnnyQ. The VOR frequencies are directly from the sim. Here you can take a look at an overview:

 

In principle the VORs work fine, at present there is a "funny" bug, though. Take a look at this thread:

Thanks for your reply Lino.

 

I was wondering about how this was actually acquired since I've never seen in the sim any VOR station or an indication there was any.

 

The bug you mention is about signal, but what's happening to me is that when setting the VORs freqs nothing happens, they dont exist. Any ideas?

 

 

Also, do you have any idea if the ADF function on the UHF of the Huey is modeled in DCS?

 

 

Thanks agin.

Also, the Vody VOR says 1171 mhz while thats not possible. What would the correct freq be?

The VORs are physical objects in the sim. The screenshot shows the VOR at Tbilisi-Lochini.

There are five VOR-stations in the current DCS World.

 

 

The bug you mention is about signal, but what's happening to me is that when setting the VORs freqs nothing happens, they dont exist. Any ideas?

 

Believe me, they do exist but do not work properly at present.

 

 

Also, do you have any idea if the ADF function on the UHF of the Huey is modeled in DCS?

 

For me, ADF-navigation works fine with the huey. Just watch this tutorial and you will use ADF as your primary navigation method:

 

 

Also, the Vody VOR says 1171 mhz while thats not possible. What would the correct freq be?

 

Remember that you fly in an eastern environment. Not everything is compatible with western technology.

Understood about the VORs, thanks!

 

About the ADF i was referring to the UHF radio and its switch that says ADF which is not working at the current release.

 

 

1171 mhz is UHF and VORs are VHF. I just checked a real world map and it's actually 117.1 mhz :)

 

 

Lino, one more question if you dont mind: I dont understand why there are specific frequencies for some planes like the Sabre or Dora and its relation to the 3 ferquencies I've always seen in each airport in the mission editor.

 

 

THANKSS!!

The oldschool radios in WWII birds and Sabre operate within very narrow bandwidth ranges, which are also quite far apart from each other (around 40 MHz in the WWII planes vs. around 250-260 MHz in the Sabre). They also have to be preset before the mission (in the editor) and cannot be changed/tuned during flight.

I see, thanks. I thought that the Huey from Belsimek was from the 60's just like the Sabre (more or less) and that required special things like those.

 

Is there any ETR on the VOR bug?
