I know it's been covered a million times but for the life of me, I can't get it to work. Could someone, who has enough patience, please kindly step by step, as if talking to a five year old, describe how to contact Stennis (in order to get the approach lights to work), including setting up the Mission Editor?
This is what I did - without succeeding - so far:
- In the ME, I left the default COM freq for the carrier at 127.500 (modulation AM)
- Once in the jet, fully ready for takeoff from the boat, I select COM 1, go to M (Manual) and enter 127.500 and then when I hit my communications menu button, it (still) works, offering me to either "Abort the takeoff" or "Go to the parent menu" or "Exit|.
- After takeoff, the above menu disappears and when I hit my communication menu button - in order to report inbound - nothing happens. I mean absolutely nothing.
What am I doing wrong?
