Tomsk Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 So I'm trying to create a player controlled flight and give it an AI wingmen. The default frequency that gets assigned to a new F-16 group is 305 which is a UHF frequency. However, as I understand it, in the F-16 the UHF radio is used for package comms and the VHF radio is typically used for flight comms. However if you go into the Mission editor and change COMM frequency to (say) 127 which is a VHF frequency, as shown here: The problem is this will not let you save the mission, as on save it gives the error: However, it's a perfectly valid frequency for the Viper! It's just a VHF frequency rather than a UHF frequency.
Tomsk Posted October 6, 2019 Author Posted October 6, 2019 Note to moderators: I note this has been moved to mission editing, however, I think this is an F-16 specific issue. Other planes (such as the F-14B) also have two radios (one UHF and one V/UHF) but let you use frequencies for either radio, it's only the F-16 that refuses VHF frequencies even though it definitely does have a VHF radio.
Sedlo Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 In the advanced actions tab, you can “set frequency for unit” and make it a VHF or UHF frequency.. The tab in the window you have defaults to the COMM1 radio, which is UHF only. That’s why it won’t work. My Youtube Channel MY DCS MISSIONS
