equinox137 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 After this latest update, my TACAN doesn't work at all. The icon doesn't show up on the HSI, there is only bearing info, but no distance, can't use CSEL anymore, and T/R no longer works. I had to land visually and manually. Is there a new procedure and is TACAN now borked? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

equinox137 Posted October 14, 2020 Author Share Posted October 14, 2020 (edited) Here is me on the ground at Tonopah. If I press T/R, then the RCV option will blank out. T/R no longer works at all. This worked prior to the automatic update that downloaded last night. Edited October 14, 2020 by equinox137 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorianR666 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 If I press T/R, then the RCV option will blank out. but thats exactly how its supposed to work. T/R and RCV are mutually exclusive. the first will compute azimuth and range, the second one only azimuth (so no symbol). pic attached is me on Tonopah Test Range Airfield with channel 77 like you. however you are in RCV mode which prevents symbol and CRS line from appearing.

That's the trouble I've been having in a nutshell. My TACAN will not go into T/R mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorianR666 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 that is weird could you upload a track? CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600X GPU: AMD RX 580 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
equinox137 Posted October 14, 2020 Author Share Posted October 14, 2020 ....and now it's working. I don't know, I didn't do anything to it. I appreciate your responding. I've just been very frustrated since getting this module. None of the tutorials for it, especially for A/G, match what this damn thing is supposed to do.

equinox137 Posted October 14, 2020 Author Share Posted October 14, 2020 Well, the track file is too big to upload. I'll try to duplicate the issue later. Could this have something to do with INS alignment at start up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
