Pro Controller software

[Matthew Schoenberg 959688]

I am a newbie and when I joined the USA, it said we are to use Pro Controller software. I was then reading on the main VATSIM sight and it said we no longer us Pro Controller software.

 

I am now confused. Do we use Pro Controller software and if not, which software should we use with Squawkbox?

 

Thank you.

Matt,

 

We now use the ASRC radar client.

 

Visit the Pilots Resource Center (www.vatsim.net - then "New Pilots Click Here" for more info).

 

If you could also reply to this post with the URL of the page that tells you to use Pro Controller, I'm sure some VATUSA webmaster would be keen to update that outdated reference.

Jeff,

 

It also says we use Squawkbox3 and does not mention FSInn. I notice there was some touchy posts on that. Is this true or are we free to use either Squawkbox3 or FSInn? Any thoughts?

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.

Looking at that page I would guess it was at the time both ASRC and PC were both allowed.

 

SB2 is the squawkbox that page then links to and certainly predates the release of both SB3 and FSInn, both of which are approved for use on the network.
