Thanks, i saw this section in the chuck guide. But only the A/G mode is explain.

I'm looking for informations about the modes:

- RCV

- A/A-RCV

- A/A-B

Apparently it is possible to use our tacan in a broadcast mode (A/A-B mode, "B" like broadcast ???).

I think it's:

 

- RCV: Receive from ground tacan.

- A/A-RCV: Receive from Air to Air plane.

- A/A-B: I think it means B for Both (Send and Receive), but i'm not sure.

I'll do a test with a friend to confirm.

Thanks

A/A-B is A/A-Big

in this mode, jf-17 will perform as a mobile tacan station (like tanker + tcn via ME) and provide long distance but less accurate measuring.

this is currently not completely supported in DCS

already talked with ED and got a solution, but still need some work from ED before we implement this feature.

Yes ! More thinking outside the box. Looking forward to it.

Sounds quite useful. Looking forward to this function.
