Absolutely agree. Anything is much appreciated! :pilotfly:

+1000! :thumbup:

Fair enough Sir. Thank you for the response - and thank you for SRS! :thumbup:

Ciribob, just out of curiosity, why can you not respond to support questions on this forum? What is the point of this DCS Simple Radio Standalone thread if all you do is refer folks to a Discord channel? I don't have a problem or question but I also don't have Discord any longer and would be lost if your response to me posting with a specific problem is going to be "Please use Discord for SRS for support https://discord.gg/Ajzxqxj " Just curious.

Can you look into the ME and see what the country of the AWACS is? I have discovered that, at least in my case, the problem lies with the country that the AWACS belongs to. I had "Combined Joint Task Forces" selected (don't ask why) and he would respond with vectors to tankers, home base, tell me that the picture was clean - all as long as there were no bogies. Once a bad guy showed up, he would clam up and refuse to respond at all. I am thinking that his electronics are still functioning because the bogey is shown on the SA page on the edge of the 160 mile ring, so at least he's seeing them. He just won't give BRA calls or even respond to a request for bogey dope. Change him to USA and he talks his damn head off!! :doh: Again, a big thank you to Flappie for helping me solve this mystery.

I ran the one with the Hornet and quickly called him for some Bogey Dope and he quickly responded with "Clean". Then when the Mig spawned in, he immediately gave me a BRA call. I am going to go back to the mission I made that started all this and change the frequency to 251 and several others to see if that makes a difference. Thank you again, Flappie, for looking into this for me.

I thought about the frequency assigned to the AWACS as possibly being the culprit because we use 139.000 VHF for our AWACS but then I discounted that because, as I stated originally, the AWACS will answer with a "Clean" response when all the enemy a/c are gone so he is able to communicate with us in F/A-18s, just not while there are enemy a/c on the map. I will download your missions though and see what happens. Thanks Flappie.

Thanks Flappie! Here is what I have found. First off, I never fly the F-15 so when I got into it, none of my controllers worked and the plane just started rolling and heading for the ground. I figured the easiest thing to do would be to just switch the F-15 for an F/A-18, which is what I fly most often. Started the mission and called the AWACS as soon as I saw the notice that the Mig had spawned in and got crickets! :mad: So, I went into the options and set up my controls for the F-15 and started the mission again. Called the AWACS after the Mig spawned in and got an immediate response with a BRA call. :doh: This is very interesting.

Not entirely certain that this is a Syria map problem however we have not had this happen on the Persian Gulf or the Caucus maps. The issue is that when there are no enemy air (Red) a/c spawned into the mission, AWACS will respond to a call for "Bogey Dope" with "Clean". As soon as the enemy a/c are on the map, AWACS will no longer respond to anybody for any reason and as soon as the last enemy a/c has been dispatched, AWACS is again happy to respond with "Clean" or give directions to base or nearest tanker or whatever. Has anyone else noticed this??

Same here Eldur :thumbup:

I voted "yes" only because, if I were into Russian naval aviation as much as I am into US naval aviation, I'd be more than happy to pay for a Kuznetsov that was equal to the SC in terms of features like the LSO station, functioning elevators, JBD's, arresting gear animation, lighting and all the rest that is slated to come out eventually. That would be a fair deal as far as I am concerned. However as it is right now, I would not be willing to pay additional money for the graphics improvement alone.

It's been requested, begged for and put on more wish lists than you can count!!:cry:

Yeah, and when you set it to 20, it's 40+ at 1600 feet!! :mad:

Does Brazil still operate a carrier? Has he ever qualified aboard a carrier?

Most excellent!! :thumbup:

Air Group 51 has a few open slots to fill and our recruiting door is now open. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=265179

Harrier, Hornet and Tomcat - routine. I struggle with the Mirage however and can't figure out how y'all manage the boom! My hat is definitely off to you Air Force folks! :notworthy:

.....to get them to get back on board for extraction?

"Would it be possible to have a/c scheduled for a Ramp start, to NOT spawn on the catapults?" I am asking if it would be possible to keep a/c that are planned to be a ramp start not to spawn on the catapults.

Would it be possible to have a/c scheduled for a Ramp start, to NOT spawn on the catapults? This happens quite a lot in our squad MP missions and it sometimes becomes quite a problen to get the chalks removed such that you either launch and go into the drink or you have to respawn to hopefully show up somewhere else on the deck. It doesn't seem like this would be too difficult a change to impliment since no plane intended to launch from the runway will EVER spawn on the carrier deck anywhere else other than a catapult. It seems like a logical step to prevent any a/c scheduled for a ramp start from spawning on a catapult. Thanks.

While they're at it, how about a few more callsigns for the Tankers?? We have about 6 or 7 available for a JTAC and only 3 for the tankers??

++! :thumbup:

Great flick! Thanks for sharing :thumbup:

I'd love to participate in this survey but not enough to open an account on google :mad:

Thanks for the update! :thumbup:
