Mission 4 question

[Jayhawk1971]

Hi Greg,

 

I was just playing mission 4 ("First Blood") and I couldn't hear Focus. I normally use the ARC-159 for preset 1 (flight) and have Jester push the respective preset buttons for each mission asset (to keep my "head down" time to a minimum). Now in this mission, it turned out that the preset button 2 on the ARC-182 doesn't seem to work. 

 

After several prompts to inform Focus on passing waypoints with no reaction, I switched to preset 2 on "my" radio and told jester to switch to the fighter frequency, and suddenly I could hear Focus (too late, as I was already at WP 3). 

 

Is this by design (=on purpose), or a mission bug?

 

Other than that, great campaign so far! I'm really enjoying the 80's vibe (having been a teenager during the 80's myself).

 

Edit: I just flew the mission again and checked the kneeboard card. ARC-159 preset 2 (251.000) corresponds with ARC-182 preset 3 (251.000). In the briefing, preset 3 is the tanker, Arco IIRC.

Hi @Jayhawk1971, thanks for the report. Well spotted, it's a mistake on my end. I never spotted it because I always ask Jester to tune the 182 to Ch1, and then I switch frequencies on my radio using keybinds. I corrected it now, will submit to ED before the next update. Thanks!

Just wanted to open the same topic report.

 

As per Navy Ops I leave my Pilot's Radio on the Interflight and let Jester do all the switching to the agencies.

 

The Channel for Focus is off and same for tower. I believe marshal was OK.
