Radios in Zone V Campaign

[bonesvf103]

Are the radios in the Zone V campaign set to easy?  I tried manually tuning the station and broadcasting for things like landing clearance and nothing happens but when prompted by the mission to hit the space bar to make a radio call on the same button I was previously using, it works.

Generally, if you've got spacebar-based comms, you shouldn't use built-in ones. Whether these respect your radio tuning is up to the campaign creator.

I have found the radio menu continually keeps appearing without me pressing the button.  It will appear, I then press the radio menu button to make it disappear, but it reappears again.  The subtitled text from things like jester's instructions keep bouncing from the top of the screen to the bottom as a result of this.  I haven't yet tried to see if it happens outside of the Zone V campaign but it seems only to have started happening after the last update.

Do you have Vaicomm?
If so look in the Vaicomm faqs there is a solution for this.
If not....check that your or RIO radio is not tuned on channel 10 (ai nellis atc)

I had the same problem which turned out to be Vaicom related. IIRC you have to delete the export.lua file from your "saved games/dcs" directory. Better do a search and double check which file exactly as it's been a while and I'm a bit fuzzy about the exact details. "One thing drives out another" as  ol' Barliman Butterbur would say

I am using VAICOM Pro and have not experienced this phenomenon.

 

Now being that you are prompted to respond by hitting the space bar by the mission, I have found that although you are given a list of freqs and buttons to tune, they really aren't much use since you just hit the spacebar anyway.  Not complaining but I was kinda looking forward to tuning my own radios and such.

Yes, but you won't hear any response if you're on the wrong frequency. Unless of course you use "easy comms".

Ah yes good point I think I did notice that today.

 

funny how though if you’re not on the right freq that they can still here you.

How would you know that?

Sorry I think I was thinking about the Raven One campaign.  I think I noticed that there.
