Ricky_piano Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I've tried searching the forum for answers on this, but recently (last 2 months or so) Jester can't seem to get a lock on anything 80% of the time. He would say "okay" or "roger" then lock for a split second and then loses lock "lost lock", "can't do that boss" etc, etc. We're a squad of 4 tomcats, we tried it at different aspects and altitudes and we get the same problem. He sometimes just won't lock and I'm talking of a range of 80 to 10Nm, we were above and below the targets in front and to the side. I tried turning off in the special tab "switch to PD-STT to P-STT when going WVR" didn't do anything. The only solution is getting in close (15nm) and using PAL. Is this a bug? Help please?

That would be super really great! No really, just "something" would be nice. Even "read the manual" would work. I DID find something... they talked about "call a wake up". They didn't actually say what that was, or how, just do it and it might work sometimes maybe. Possibly a command with VIACOM... still don't know WHAT it's doing though.

Steel Jaw Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Im sure he can but for the most part he simply doesnt seem to "want" to lock what I tell him to.

mattag08 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Locking datalink contacts doesn't usually work, if that's what you're trying to do. Otherwise it's usually because you're being notched.
