packer_edge Posted February 25, 2023 Posted February 25, 2023 Is there any way to change the preset radio frequencies for the F18 radio in flight ... or can that only be done via the mission editor? I'm thinking specifically about a multiplayer server scenario where the radio frequencies used don't match the hornet preset frequencies, and I can't access the mission editor as a user. I realize I can manually punch in the frequencies, but would be handy to change the presets in flight if possible for efficiency.

Erm... When you select a preset with a rotary knob, then punch in another frequency and press ENT, this frequency will be saved into the selected preset. Rinse and repeat. P.S. A handy list of all your presets is available under SUPT > UFC BU. 1 Dima | My DCS uploads
rob10 Posted February 25, 2023 Posted February 25, 2023 What Minsky said. And there is preset "M" if you want to manually set a frequency and not mess with any of your other preset's
packer_edge Posted February 25, 2023 Author Posted February 25, 2023 Ah ... okay, sorry. Should have played around a bit more with that. I haven't had a need for it to this point, and I thought doing that only temporarily overrode the saved frequency. Thanks.
rob10 Posted February 25, 2023 Posted February 25, 2023 It's actually not a bad question to have asked. It's not necessarily obvious that it is that way, and it can mess with you (even if you know about it) and without thinking write over one of your presets (i.e. in a campaign). That's why I mentioned the M setting.

zoomie36 Posted February 26, 2023 Posted February 26, 2023 I can figure out how to input the frequencies, but can you edit the name as well? Thanks by the way!
