Help with ADF on Mission 11?

[mokrunka]

SPOILERS:

I stumbled across the VHF FM signal later in the mission, and was encouraged to try to use ADF to locate the source and make contact. I was ultimately able to do this, but it took about 30 minutes of random flying.

I turned the radio to DF mode, turned off TAC and ILS, unstowed the needles, and confirmed I was homing on the signal. However, the ADI never actually seemed to point the little bug in the right direction. 

Is this me doing something wrong, or a mission issue?

Great campaign so far by the way, fantastic work!

E: sorry, mission 11

Hey thanks for the feedback!

Regards the ADF it could be a bug, another user reported an issue getting it to home correctly months ago, we never got to the bottom of whether it was user error or a DCS problem.  I'll do some more digging.

Just completed this mission and got stuck on the ADF part as well... flew all over trying to get more than garble, but the signal went dead after about 30 mins of hunting around and I never did make contact. ANy ideas? GREAT mission!!
