fixed ADF issue

[Aquila_Mandalore]

Hi Chaps, 

I fly the F-5 since very long time and it's the first time I experienced this issue on the OpenB 2.8.

When I set an ADF frequency in the UHF Radio ( even if the same frequency is preset in the mission editor ) I can hear the Morse code but the ADF pointer on the HSI doesn't move toward. 

 

I tried it on several map making sure setting Mhz frequencies but always the same I can hear the tone but the pointer doesn't move at all. 

 

I was use to : 

1. Set the adf frequency manually

2. Turn the UHF Mode knob to "ADF"

3. Verify the UHF Selector Mode is on "Manual"

4. Hear the Morse Code

5. Set the Radio Nav selector to "DF" 

 

I've tried several start configurations, maps and beacons. I'm aware the F/A18 dosen't work the same but I also tried it and the ADF pointer on the Hornet HSI works perfectly well. 

So my question are :

Did I forget something since the last time that it worked (i mess up) ? 

Did something change in the setting procedure or Mhz frequencies bands able to be used with the F5 UHF radio with new update ? 

Or is there a bug that should normaly be corrected once ? 

Thank very much for your help. 

Have a nice flight. 

Mike.

 

Edit : I see now the HSI bearing pointer seems to bug as per other soon opened topics. As I searched only for ADF bug, I didn't find anything so I created this one. Sorry if that bother.

Hi, 

Here a quick track about the problem I am experiencing. 

Hope could be helpful and you can find something. 

I ve try quickly differents set up and frequecies ( Altitude, mode switches, line of sight, antennas, ) 

I get the Morse tone every times but niether the bearing pointer or the direction "to/from" pointer are working for me. 

If it works for you, probably, I mess something up or I do have to reinstall the F-5 Module (thing i did'nt already try).

 

Cheers for the time. 

Mike.

Thanks for verifying!

F-5 has so few means of radio navigation, at this point all hampered due to this bug. Hope it could be addressed before Christmas otherwise it will be a long haul.

We have to see this as an opportunity to test our Dead Reckoning navigation skills using the ABU-11/A clock.
