RWR/ELINT Bugs

[Ghost79]

I've been doing some testing with the ELINT on the Viggen over the last couple of days with very mixed results...

In particular there seems to be some oddities with certain units, I tested against Russian SAM systems and found that the P19 Flat Face radar gave this spurious sent of data: 

Band: A,  PRF: 0, Broadcast: 0.2, Silent: 0.1

Not only this but the RWR does not detect any radar signals from this unit.  At first I thought this might be a bug with the unit, but the the Harrier picked it up perfectly.  Note: I have been able to successfully identify some units with the Viggen i.e. SA8 (Band: B, PRF: 2800, Broadcast:0.1, Silent: 1.7)  so I don't think there is anything wrong with my technique in setting the Viggen up correctly.

I've noticed the ELINT data no longer matches the data tables in Chuck's guide, but this could be old data.

I am also seeing the same with the 1L13 EWR and the Sborka 'Dog Ear', I've not had the chance to test everything but it seems that not all radars are being picked up by the RWR and give the same spurious ELINT data as above.

On a side note, the results of the radar location are always far off from the actual radar location, no matter how many different angles I fly at the radar there doesn't seem to be any accuracy or consistency as to the results, although this could be normal.

Either I'm doing something drastically wrong or the ELINT/RWR system is a little bugged.

Never mind, found the answer in the bugs section, turns out the Viggen can't detect signals from some search radars.

IRL or is that a DCSism?

IRL. They are outside of the frequency range of the Viggen's RWR.
