The controllers guide says to use ASEL in order to radio select an aircraft. How does this work? Using the default ASEL, "+", I type callsign, followed by "+" and enter. This [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igns the a/c a new code. In the txt box itself, pressing enter will send message "DAL109+". Can you please explain how to put the a/c into the radio select box?

In the text box, type DAL109 and then press +, or whatever you have set as your ASEL key as set in the settings window (Ctrl+S to open).

 

Don't type DAL109+ and then enter. In fact you should not even be able to do that, since + is supposedly the ASEL. Are you using the NumPad + sign, or holding down shift and pressing the + = button next to backspace?

Numpad +, but it still enters in a + sign.

Did you inadvertently change your asel key to something other than the default?

Bearing in mind ASEL only works within the text comms window, and NOT within the radar scope window itself.
