jetsimace Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) Just learning the basics, I am stuck how to do the radio check as requested while still at the ramp. When setting the "V/UHF Radio Function Selector" to "FF" the display shows a row of asterisks (******** - same as for SV, DL and EN positions) and I am not able to switch predefined channels via the "VHF channel selector". V/UHF frequency always stays at guard frequency of 243.000 MHz. Update 2020-03-02: Switching channels works fine when switching to "FF" for the first time. After having switched from "FF" e.g. to "G" and then back to "FF" the asterisks will appear and switching channels will no longer be possible.... Easy communcation I have disabled / unchecked in the options settings. What does it mean to do the "radio check" in DCS? Is there suppoesed to be an entry "radio check" when communicating via the "MAIN V/UHF RADIO SELECT" button? I haven't seen such an entry so far... Many thanks for your help!

baltic_dragon Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Hey, the missions have been updated for the new pit - and whole set will be out with the next patch. Just a little bit of extra patience :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsimace Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 Thanks baltic_dragon - great to see you being so committed and responsive! This (minor) issue with the green radio still seems to persist (OpenBeta 2.5.6.44266 which includes your recent training mission updates), so I have opened a thread in the bug section.

jetsimace Posted March 9, 2020 Author Share Posted March 9, 2020 Fyi: Works now perfect in the updated training missions (Openbeta 2.5.6.44266): "radio check" is a scripted event - you only need to select the correct radio frequencies, then press Spacebar and it's done automatically. I had been searching for something in the radio menu ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gretsch_Man Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I got lost after been asked to check in with ground for taxing. According to the kneeboard, I'm supposed to be on CH3 (G) and CH1 (R). Trying to contact Nellis via comms menu, I have to ask permission for engine start-up, but no response whatsoever. Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic_dragon Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Yep - you will be either using SPACE BAR to progress or F-10 radio menu. It should be explained in the message box on the top-right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
