draconus's post in Comms general issue was marked as the answer
Do the keys and combos work outside of DCS normally? Do you have other apps running in background?
Try to run DCS repair, clean and run with clean profile.

draconus's post in Steam authorization failure was marked as the answer
No, you need connection to authorize paid DLC even just for a minute, then you can use offline mode. Tethering from smartphone not possible?

draconus's post in HDD Taking Several Minutes After Quitting a Session or the Game was marked as the answer
Yes, make sure to have both DCS main directory as well as DCS saved games there.
I'd start with taking out the mods (even if just for testing) - you have quite a few installed including textures mod.
It's advised to set your Windows page file fixed size = 32GB (min/max).
Last but not least - if this "HDD Digital Western 2GB" is really HDD, not SSD type, it'll always be your main offender here - the tech is thing of the past and it's slooow. With SSD prices these days you're making yourself huge disservice not jumping on SSD already.
The dcs.log says the closing takes 15s so the rest is Windows releasing memory and managing page file (DCS has no bearing on that). What takes 15s on SSD will take minutes on HDD and it's normal.
Of course the more memory the better and less disk swapping.

draconus's post in Tonopah TACAN station moves in space depending your altitude and possibly speed. was marked as the answer
Tested in F-14 and found no bug. Just remember TACAN shows slant range and WYPT shows ground range. 15nm difference though does not seem to be possible unless you fly at 91k ft.

draconus's post in Wrong aircraft in the Su-25A campaign 'Revanche' was marked as the answer
Read more into the briefings - you start with relocation flight of 4 Su-25 and 4 Su-25T. You use Su-25T for training days and check rides. Then you fly missions with Su-25.
It is a free campaign so take it as it is.

Mods are loaded with DCS from here:

draconus's post in How to buy J-11A? was marked as the answer
Yes, it's like a hidden gem, a bonus type of Su-27. Not even one built-in mission afaik - you have to use custom mission or make one for yourself. No info about it in FC3 or Su-27 module descriptions - pity - someone might look for it and appreciate one.

draconus's post in Changing Frequency to a second Tanker was marked as the answer
You tune your aircraft radio freq first, then use PTT button to use that radio to transmit to the Arco, which you choose from the comm menu tankers list.

draconus's post in I can't see FPS in game was marked as the answer
Game radar indicates you have a game mode or game avionics turned on.
Lctrl+Z is default for time accel - it might be a keybind conflict.

draconus's post in Offline Access - Unexpected Outages was marked as the answer
@Wolf359Grace period is exactly 72h without having to authenticate again. If using mobile internet/sharing is not an option and you don't want to be surprised just stay in offline mode. It saves the authentication for as long as you want it.
