Calling the wrong AWACS, what am I doing wrong?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I’m currently flying some DCE missions, and having trouble contacting AWACS via voice.

There’s 2 different AWACS in the mission, Overloard & Darkstar. I tune into the correct Overlord frequency, but when I make a request via voice, it always directs the transmission to the non existent Magic instead (identifiable by the pilot text). Even though the frequency is correct, because it’s directed to Magic, I never get a response. When I use the comm menu instead of voice, and select Overlord, it works correctly.

Simply for ease of use, I usually omit the Overlord callsign in my voice transmission, but even including it makes no difference.

I assume this is user error, but I just can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried giving an "Overlord, SELECT" command first? That's required if you don't name Overlord in the other commands. And naming Overlord in your command should only work if you have "Instant Select" turned on.
