Logged on to network as an observer. I saw that the position DEN_TWR was active and I wanted to monitor. I was not on an active frequency myself.

I opened AFV and clicked the plus sign to open another channel. I typed DEN_TWR into the "callsign box and clicked the check mark. The box displayed "not found" and I did not get the prompt to enter a frequency for the TWR so I could not monitor.

It looks like I was following the manual instructions so...what am I missing?

If the position isn’t explicitly defined in the AFV database, you may need to use the ICAO ID for the airport. Thus, if DEN_TWR doesn’t work, try KDEN_TWR.

Thank you.

That seems to have done the trick.
