The titles says it all. When I train students with TWRTrainer, and attempt to have a aircraft squawk a [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned code starting with a "0", I get this error: "Invalid squawk code."

 

Here is a screenshot: https://prnt.sc/ou05ne

 

Thanks!

TWRTrainer is not going to receive any updates ... I don't even have the software necessary to compile it any more. It's that old.

I understand that TWRTrainer will not get any more updates but the thing is that it works for others but it does not work for me. Any way I could fix this?

I'm not sure why it would work for others and not you. Can't you just not use squawk codes that start with a zero?

Yup, only squawk codes that start with a Zero don't work but our facilty uses squawk codes with Zeros so training is then made difficult with the POF havibg squawks with Zero.

Are you hand typing the code, or copying and pasting from somewhere?

I am hand typing it into VRC and It works fine with squawking a code not starting with "0".

I'm afraid I have no idea why it won't work for you.
