Smokin Hole Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 Search of manual turned up cold as did search of this forum. There is an amber light left of the gunsight gyro controls that, when illuminated, is associated with a persistent bell. What is that? Thanks.
JesseJames38 Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 That light would be for the Rear Warning REciver. the control box for that light is on the right hand side of your leg in the cockpit Snuggles
Smokin Hole Posted May 1, 2012 Author Posted May 1, 2012 Wow. What a PoS then. (the reciever, not the plane) 1st. I've received it a lot. And when it's activated it stays. 2nd. I've only played from the editor with no other planes or units placed. 3rd. I didn't turn it on.
EvilBivol-1 Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 It's a very simple radio device, I believe actually a modified bomb fuse. It will go off at low altitude from ground reflections. - EB [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Nothing is easy. Everything takes much longer. The Parable of Jane's A-10 Forum Rules
Spetz Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 That's what that thing is!! Thanks! I turned the RWR on one flight and the light and buzzer went off on the ground and stayed on until about 500 AGL or so.. Was freaking me out cause I had no clue..

VIMANAMAN Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Likewise, didn't have a clue what that was - I must read the book!! What with orange lights and bells not usually indicating all is well, the couple of times it's happened to me I landed guessing something bad was about to happen :)
Spy Guy Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Search of manual turned up cold as did search of this forum. Page 47; Item #1 Page 93; Described under the AN/APS-13 RWR section (still, a picture of the light would be nice for the next revision of the manual, pretty please? ;)) Problems setting up switches on the HOTAS Warthog or similar?
