SA 342 Nine-line radio routine with AFAC not progressing

I can post a .miz or video if needed, the problem I'm having is I've set up a reaper drone as an AFAC for the gazelle, the purpose being to have the reaper designate a target with IR pointer at night. This does work in my test mission with the A10-C. With the gazelle, after reading the nine line, nothing further happens after I select "ready to copy remarks". This prevents the CAS mission from progressing.

As a side note, it would be great if the FAC's could provide lat long instead of MGRS based on what aircraft you use to contact but I don't think that's a Polychop problem.

Thanks guys, loving the dixmude campaign! It was mission 3 where I saw the IR pointer in use that made me think of doing this, but I notice you used a script to get the IR pointer to appear.
