Hi guys, I've been playing fsx for ages but only started playing online recently. I need help with the radio as I don't get how to use it. For example when I'm on http://www.vattastic.com/ and I'm at Gatwick and get the ATC frequency 134.220

I know how to get the 134 bit of the frequency by going onto nav 2 and changing it to 134 but the .220 I get confused with as it can only go to .0 and .50 any help?

 

Many Thanks

Hey Ben, .220 and .225 are treated the same on the network.

Sounds like your radio is set to 50 kHz spacing rather than 25 kHz spacing. [Mod - Happy Thoughts]uming it supports the latter, there may be a simulated knob you need to pull in order to get the "finer" tuning.

 

Which sim and which aircraft are you using?

You said Nav2 ... but if you're tuning an ATC frequency, you want a COM radio, not NAV.
