Paul Robson Posted August 31, 2020 at 09:23 AM Posted August 31, 2020 at 09:23 AM I have been listening and watching and Euroscope with AFV using Virtualbox, and it seems to work fine. However, this is receive only, I can't green-light the TX button, the PTT doesn't seem to work, the microphone seems fine when using the level bar on the Settings dialog box. Is this deliberate ? I ask because it would be handy to do a Radio Check to see if all is working. I note this is technically against the rules but looking at forum posts ATC do not seem to mind as long as one doesn't get in the way when they're busy.

Tomas Hansson Posted August 31, 2020 at 12:39 PM Posted August 31, 2020 at 12:39 PM Yes, this is deliberate - you need to have a controller rating higher than OBS in order to transmit in an ATC client. Tomas Hansson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what you are quoting here, but if it's against the rules, then it is against the rules. Observers are not allowed to transmit or have any "visible activity" on the network itself, hence the name 'observer'. If someone has quoted that it's okay, please link it so we can clarify it.
