I'm the new guy on the block. I probably spoke to one or two of you guys over the last 24 hours or so as DFW_JWM_OB... Hope I wasn't too chatty.

 

Hoping to get into the Controller business on here. This kind of thing really interests me, so there y'go.

 

Hope to see you online!

I just p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ed my first exam! I'm feelin' pretty spiffy.

 

Though, I'm not gonna get too happy. I barely s[Mod - lovely stuff]ed a good, solid p[Mod - Happy Thoughts].. I've gotta lot of work to do before I'm up to snuff, I think.

Don't think I can apply for a posting yet. I'm just a student, still.. if I don't work DFW, I'll probably work Memphis-town. It's closest to where I Live IRL, too.

 

Waitin' on the instructor to get in touch with me.

 

Can anyone shed some light on why I can't get voice transmissions? I know I can't transmit, but I should be able to recieve...

 

All my stuff has been set up to listen properly, too. I dunno what the trouble is. Anyone got suggestions?

I know that in Memphis you have to have like zme_133.65 in the voice channel to hear memphis center. and like zme_118.70 to here LIT_TWR... What goes in the voice channel differes from ATRCC to ARTCC. If in ZME you just put like MEM_E_CTR like most ARTCC's do, you wont here anything. Just check in the local SOP's the for the Artcc you are wishing to listen to. "Just a thought"

Should I be worried that I've not heard from anyone except the Training Director yet?

 

READ: I don't think Anthony's taking the challenge of being my actual instructor, and I don't think my instructor's contacted me yet. Should I be concerned?

That's because I put up my VOX channel in my ATIS...

In ZOB, we do the facility (D21, DTW, PIT, CLE, or ZOB), then the frequency (ex. zob_134.90, d21_124.25, etc...). Some ARTCCs are migrating over to this format (most likely to avoid people interfereing w/ controlling).

Check your firewall settings.. I had some issues with that when I started using VOX

I've resolved that there's a problem... not with my computer or my firewall settings - because I've tweaked as much as I can on my end. The problem has to lie within my ISP.

 

Thanks for the help guys.

 

I got an instructor, too! YAY.
