JTACs and automatic 9-line

[Iceman2011]

Is there certain distance in which I need to be from JTAC to get it automatically start 9-line after saying tally enemy brg rng?

 

1) I'm at base, now when enemy is for example 20M from base, my JTAC moves to it and says tally... then starts 9-line.

 

2) I'm at base, now when enemy is for example 100M from base, my JTACs moves to it says

tally... aaaaand that's it - so I have to contact it and give that what do you have for us litany to get 9-line

 

How to prevent this, I'd like it to start 9-line always without me contacting it the 2nd, 3rd, 4rd time and so on

 

in case 1 I contact JTAC it says that "standby" line

in case 2 JTAC just says "no more tasking available" and so on

I think you have to first fly into the area, check in with the JTAC, tell him what armament you have and for how long you will be available for tasking and then he will give you targets when he has some work for you. You don't have to check in again and again to get more targets. If he says stand by, then just stand by, he will get back to you soon. It works this way for me.

 

PS : dont change radio frequencies or you wont be able to hear him if he calls you with some tasking.
