FR22 base selector ALLM positions

[Flappie]

Hey, it's me again! :)

 

The page 199 of the RC1 manual reads:

Every sixth position of the selector knob will display the mode ALLM (Common) which will change the function of the letter channel selectors to correspond to the FR24 channels G, F, E.

The cockpit and the manual don't agree about the different knob positions. Here's what the knob cycle looks like in the cockpit:

 

1

2

3

4

5

ALLM (6th position)

6

7

8

9

ALLM

11 (12th position)

12

13

14

15

ALLM

16 (18th position)

17

18

19

20

 

The source of the problem is probably the absence of the number 10. Can the devs confirm this, please?

 

EDIT: Here's a video of the bug.

Yeah, not being able to talk to Gudauta is killing me! :) Btw, can you use manual frequency setting for Gudauta? I do not seem to get that to work.

Yes I know it´s not an game breaker but I use the radio commands and the same is with Kashab or what it´s called on PG map, the topmost base on the peninsula.

 

 

Tried talking to that base today and it´s not really working.

I did what I used to do when talking to Gudauta, set the freq manual and choose button "-".

But this time only the menus changed as if I got responses but there was no response either with sound or text.

I haven´t tried on the other maps at the moment if the same happens there also.

It used to work normaly like with the base selector with the only exception that you had to set the freq manually.

I finally figured it out. :doh: The two frequency dials actually consist of two separate dials, sort of on top of each other (don't really know how to describe this). So effectively you have to turn four dials. In the past I only used the two "top" dials as I was not aware of the dials that are close to the panel.

 

 

 

Don't tell me it was all described in the manual ...

Both radio panels are fully detailed in the manual, yes. ;) (p. 198-202)

Indeed:

"The two knobs control each of the three off the digits and each knob has a inner and an outer section. The inner section of the left knob controls the first two digits (21), and the outer the last (7). The inner right knob changes the first digit (2), and the outer the last digits (50) in increments of 25."

 

 

How could I have missed it ...

Funny!

 

 

Until December I didn't realize that all airbases had codes, which are programmed into the presets and easily accessible I ... always used the manual tuning with the 4 knobs ... still using them very often.

Oh Saab....

We've been missing the "10" for so long now. Here's a video showing the issue:
