FM radio

[thrustvector]

anyone else having problems picking up crashed hueys/medivacs for example using the FM radio, its not working for me at the moment, if its just me I might try a repair

I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to achieve? You want to locate crashed Hueys by using FM homing? That would require them to transmit something in the first place, which they don't do (unless you do some scripting). :huh:

just asking really if theres a prob with the fm radio. I have a few missions to pick up downed pilots etc that require it and it does not always work, but don't worry a repair seems to have solved it so far

FM is affected by line of sight and range. Hills can interfere with signals.

This is an old thread with my new problem Flew Argo mission one and the FM did not work even a mile from the ship or going out to do ASW work so, Line of sight and altitude have no bearing on the problem. And yes it was on and tuned correctly

Haven't checked the track but I did the first two Argo missions today and the FM homing worked fine. Did you have the dial set to Home (last on right) when trying it? If you have it set to T/R it won't work. Once I put mine to Home I could pick it up from far away in both missions.

[RePhil]

Not sure but that may be it. Will check again when I do next mission thanks
