viper2097 Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 Take a look at the radio: http://www.heatblur.se/F-14Manual/cockpit.html#v-uhf-2-an-arc-182-radio The mode & frequency mode knobs (7 & 8 ) are missing any kind of indexer to know where the knob is dialed in.

IronMike Posted August 31, 2019 Posted August 31, 2019 Like strike eagle said; they are actually there, if you look very closely, but they are barely visible. I will ask if this is a representation true to real life (which would be my guess, knowing how painstakingly Cobra and the art team worked on these things) Heatblur Simulations Please feel free to contact me anytime, either via PM here, on the forums, or via email through the contact form on our homepage. http://www.heatblur.com/ https://www.facebook.com/heatblur/
viper2097 Posted September 2, 2019 Author Posted September 2, 2019 Just did some research. According 1.16, I'll not post any pics etc. It seems correct that those spots, which StrikeEagle marked, should be the marker for the knobs positions. However, from pictures and descriptions I've found, those marks should be definitely be done with a clearly visible color. Also if it is a worn cockpit, this color spot should be added. HB, I've always defended you in regards of a too worn cockpit, and I like the pit, but that would be too much. Also the manual is lacking of informations regarding the position of the left turn knob. So it was also not that easy to operate it just with clicks. (please also consider that doing "clicks" in VR isn't always that simple, as you not always hit what you are supposed to.) Left turn knob (8 ) Beginning from the left, going clockwise: 1 - 243: Tune to 243.000 (guard frequency. also works if knob 7 is in off position) 2 - MAN: Manual frequency selection 3 - G: Tunes the radio to the guard frequency of the band which was last used. 4 - Preset: Select a preset channel 5 - READ: Display the preset frequency 6 - LOAD: Automaticaly places the displayed frequency into the memory for the selected preset channel (not sure hwo that works) Right turn knob (7) Beginning from the left, going clockwise: 1 - Off: Radio turned off, except 243 is selected on the left knob) 2 - T/R: Turns on radio in transmit / receive. 3 - T/R&G: Turns on radio on transmit / receive and also guard. 4 - DF: Direction Finding mode (ADF) 5 - TEST: Indicated built in Test.
