Newb needs help with tuning radio frequencies in vPilot

Hello all! Brand new to VATSIM and I'm trying to have an observe only session using vPilot. I seem to connect ok, I'm parked at a gate on the airport and can see ATIS as well as Center coms but when I attempt to set the correct frequency for either my radio instantly kicks back to the current frequency. I'm in TBM930. I do get a brief second where I can hear ATIS before switching back to the original frequency but nothing at all for Center.

 

Any help appreciated as I simply want to get some observation time before going any further.

Hi! Are you using MSFS by any chance?

This is a known issue using in-game ATC. Don't use that when using VATSIM, there might also be some additional settings but I'm not sure. 🙂

Oh, yes sorry Mats, on MSFS. Thanks for the reply. I will start with your suggestion. BTW I did try it in the Beechcraft King Air with better results but you are correct as the in game ATC was stepping on the ATIS. 

Thanks again,

Dan
