R828 ADF Navigation is not working for me

Hi guys, I am new to Mi24. Just having a quick question around the 828 ADF Navigation.

I have done all steps same as the below tutorial video.

Before flight:
1) Set frequency in editor 
2) Add ATC truck transmitting on the channel repeatedly

In Game:

3) Set ARK-U2 on and Compass mode
4) Set R828 channel and hold AUT button until tuner indicator out

5) Mode switch to ARK2 from SET on HSI

 

But simply the needle is not moving at all after above steps. Considering the video was from 2 years ago, I wonder has there been a recent change on R828 functionality? Or is this a bug?

Thanks in advance for any helps!

I just tested an old mission I have created.

What modulation did you put?

Screenshot editor for that particular unit, showing how you set it up.

You set ARK-U2 to comp on “R-828” mode? Becuase there is also a ARK-U2 comp mode for R-852, which is a short range CSAR radio

Yes sir, I confirmed I set ADF-VHF2 to P828 mode, I have shared the screenshots above. Please let me  know if I have done something wrong. Thanks

It looks like you did not select anything to be transmited

 

 

I made it transmitting text message “123” in loop. Is it not right? Please correct me if have done sth wrong there, thx.

No, it doesn't work that way. You can't make it transmit text-to-speech, you have to select a file. It has to be either .ogg or .wav type of file.

Take another look at that video at 1 minute mark.

So, the truck MUST be transmitting a custom file to make ADF work? I kinda don't understand why it's like that, but will try it out later.

I just created a .wav file from a morse code generator website >>

https://www.radio-amater.rs/morsecodegenerator/

. Make the truck transmit that downloaded file, and it worked! However, I can't hear the morse code sound at all.



P.S. My truck is transmitting at 50 Mhz AM. I tried FM too.

 

Thank you very much for the advice!

You need to select 828 on ICS panel and return 828 COMPASS switch back to comm.

And R-828 channel need to be set to channel 7 (50MHz as you have set it up in mission editor).

In your example the channel had been set to 0.

No, it does not matter. His Ch 0 is set to 50. You can have all channels set at the same freq (I don't know how it works IRL).

As long as your channel is the same freq as transmiting unit, you're fine.

That's true, thanks!
