Question - Can I use the keyboard unit in the DCS Apache to send text messages to my CPG and/or wingman?

And question 2: if I map my physical keyboard to be the keys for the keyboard unit, will I be able to open up multiplayer chat separately and type in multiplayer chat without also typing into the keyboard unit? Will DCS turn off the keyboard unit inputs if multiplayer chat is activated?

Why would you text your CPG? You have an intercom.

The apache net supports text messages among a great many other things, yes. Not sure if DCS will implement that.
