draconus Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I load the IA mission NTTR DACT Guns (the one with F-16), win the fight then ask Jester to set his radio to Groom lake ATC, which he does, but choose VHF freq and it ain't working for me. I can click around RIO pit myself and nothing helps. When I tell Jester to set correct UHF freq, his radio does work and I can contact ATC. Anyone? I cannot tell if it's module specific as I have the Tomcat only.

Scotch75 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Maybe try getting Jester to change to AM (or FM if you are on AM). Cheers!

Scotch75 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Hmmm, I'm not sure what's going on then. I'll try to test it tonight. Cheers!

draconus Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 It's actually any of the VHF 38.xxx on NTTR and not mission related. Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX3060 Rift S T16000M TWCS TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch75 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 At a bit of an educated guess then, I would think the Tomcat radios will not be able to go to those lower frequencies, even if Jester indicates in the affirmative that he has "tuned" the radio.

draconus Posted December 14, 2019 Author Share Posted December 14, 2019 Tested on Caucasus and PG too, no response from ATC if on VHF 38-40MHz. So, only Tomcat related or the freqency ATC bug? UHF works fine. Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX3060 Rift S T16000M TWCS TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf359 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I don't get responses in the F-18 either. Would this have anything to do with the real GL having no inbound/outbound contact?

draconus Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 I don't think so, because you do get responses in UHF. If the VHF 38.xxx was not suppose to work we wouldn't have Jester choosing it in the first place when ask to tune ATC.

IronMike Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I havent time to test it before xmas, but if you like, see if you get the same with other modules, this would rather point towards the ATC having an issue there. Maybe only the AM frequencies are active atm, I wouldnt know. We haven't touched anything on the radios for months now.

draconus Posted December 19, 2019 Author Share Posted December 19, 2019 I asked the question on general DCS forum and the consensus is that it should not work for modern aircraft. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=4143106 Can you please at least make Jester not choose those frequencies for ATC?
