Radio 2 AM FM Issue


Darkdiz

Recommended Posts

Had this happen post update.

Spawn (MP or SP), radio 2 is on whatever default freq is set in the mission (for example 121.5 AM). If I change to manual freq (GREC CM), and enter any freq (say 264, it comes up as 264.000FM (should be AM as the radio does not operate in the FM band at that frequency). In order to get this to work, it has to be manually changed in the R2 sub-menu, PB9 MAN-AM.

This has only been noticed post update last week, and is also an issue on any preset channel (radio goes to FM, when it should stay in AM). When trying to talk either through the radio menu or any VOX (SRS or embedded) to say for example the AWACS (on 264.000AM) obviously there is no connection.  Works fine after changing the system to AM through the R2 sub-menu PB9. Radio 1 works fine in this regard.

Came here to find out why I can't talk to ATC on preset radio 2 anymore. Thanks for reporting the bug!

Did you change the fm to am to get it to work?

It also appears that radio 2 is monitoring VHF guard (121.5) on FM, should be AM (R2 sub menu top row says GV121.5 FM). I guess while we are here, radio 2 line 5 seems mis-labelled in that it always shows U when there is a VHF freq entered (should say V).

Thanks! I was desperately trying to figure out why I could not communicate with the ATC on radio 2 while communication with AWACS was ok.

I think there are several fixes that need to be done here, the am/fm thing, the V vs U label, and the guard also monitoring 121.5 FM vice AM

Radio 1 also has at least one issue:
For communication within the flight I use the default 243,000 MHz/Chnl 1.
When I activate the channel selection field by hitting the [GREC C/M], I cannot communicate with my wingmen.
I can hear them when they call out a bandit for example, but they do not hear my commands.
When I switch to the frequeny field. communication works both ways.
It seems to me that the radios require a lot of rework.
