investigating Mission7 Tactical channel issue

[Japo32]

Hi! Today I was flying the Mission7. Had to go to videos to see what was happening as Tactical wasn't speaking to me. I switched to Tactical Aux as commanded and looked the kneeboard. There it says Tactical channel 4. so I switched to 4 and nothing happened. Seems that is channel 1 as I saw in videos and there I could hear it. So the problem comes from the kneeboard. I recommend changing the 4 number by a 1 in it.

 

Also Had issues dropping the bombs. I throwed all of them and only after throwing my second smoke one it continued with the missión. That made me waste a lot of fuel, so in the middle of the boggies contacts I had to refuel (by the way the wingman didn't refuel, but was better on gas than me).

 

Thanks!

Hm.. the second part may be linked with the first, as you are not supposed to drop any smoke, all that is handled by your wingman. I suspect user error with the radios, as I haven’t heard about any issues here before, but I’ll have a look of course. Thanks for reporting.

didn't know I didn't have to put the smoke on. I misunderstood that one. But the kneeboard says clearly that the channel is 4, and it should be 1:

Tactical on AUX is channel 1, Aux is the COM2 radio. Looks like you're looking at Com1 Pri plan, there are two radios in the hornet and two radio com plans on the kneeboard.
