Not sure if bug or something I'm doing wrong, but...   

Mariana Islands F-18 free flight. After flying around the island for a while, I do a case 1 on the carrier. I use the ball call and hear the Hornet call in the audio. However, after the landing and I exit, the grade is "no proper communications." With my F-14 landings, I only get this grade when I forget to call the ball. Anyone else run into this?

you need to ensure you are flying the correct pattern approach, and following the radio procedure correctly 

 

a guide to this can be found in DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\tech\Supercarrier\Doc

Please note that ball calls need be to made within 0.7nm or else you may get BC/no proper comms. I start from there, if you get the same grade please check your CASE I approach to find the culprit. You´re missing something.

About carrier ops: "The younger pilots are still quite capable of holding their heads forward against the forces. The older ones have been doing this too long and know better; sore necks make for poor sleep.'

Can you describe your CASE I, if possible please, to check if i or any other virtual aviator here can help you further? i can guide you to good CASE I videos if you wish.

Hi, thanks for following up. I believe your first thought was correct, I was not within .7nm of the carrier. I just did the same exercise and made sure I was within range before calling the ball and got a normal grade. Thanks!
