dggoofy Posted April 17 Posted April 17 Hi, Just wander what's the distance now a ground unit can be catched from the air ? I created a campaign (Equilibrium 1975) and put some ground ATC within ME. And now they are unaudible if the player's plane is more than 35 NM. With the update, has the distance been reduced ? Cheers

Cheers The distance with which you can communicate depends on the power of the transmitter and especially on the altitude of the transmitter and the receiver. Since it's line of sight, the bigger the altitude difference, the farther the range is, provided there is no obstacle inbetween.

I put the max power and (if possible) on a high position. My question is : In my campaign made for DCS 2.8, I set a couple of ground com vehicles (power 50 w). I could complete the mission without problem (distance to the com emitter >50 NM) and now in DCS 2.9, it doen't work any more. Max distance is about 35 NM. I have to duplicate the emitters if I do not want to redo the whole mission.
