Select frequency

[filthymanc]

I've only recently become aware that there is a select frequency command in Vaicom. Note - Not the select ATC frequency function.

 

Is it supposed to work in the A10C I/II?

 

I have Easy comms set to off, and have Vaicom settings ticked to work in EC off. But it doesn't seem to work.

 

Is this not designed to work for the A10C?

 

The command I'm talking about is the SELECT [AM/FM] <number> <number> <number> decimal <number> <number>

I haven't tried it in the A-10C yet, but that particular command gives a lot of people grief.

 

I cannot get it to work in any module and it's not just me, there have been several threads about it. To be fair, I think it's a problem with Voice Attack rather than Vaicom.

 

In theory it should work, in practice, VA recognises the command (most of the time) but doesn't execute it.

 

Hollywood insists its all down to the timing used to say the command, but dammed if I can get it to work no matter what cadence I use

 

Again I haven't written a command for the A-10C as I don't fly it a lot and don't even know if it's possible.

 

For the modules I use frequently I got fed up with it and wrote my own command into a profile appended (or piggybacked) onto the Vaicom profie
