Nichlas Falk Posted May 26, 2021 at 04:10 PM Posted May 26, 2021 at 04:10 PM Hallo fellow pilots, i just joined VATSIM yesterday. I have finished the orientation and exam, installed vPilot and connected. There's a problem tho. When i go to an active airport to listen in and learn and connect, i cant hear anything. I've got the right settings for audio on vPilot and the correct frequency, but i cant hear anything. May it be that i'm on the wrong server? Please let me know 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Board of Governors Don Desfosse Posted May 27, 2021 at 03:23 PM Board of Governors Posted May 27, 2021 at 03:23 PM Hello, Nichlas, Yesterday, you made 4 connections to the network less than one hour after completing your P0 exam, the first connection being 18 minutes after passing the exam. We state 6 times during the registration process, including a reminder on the screen that is presented upon successful completion of the exam, that it can take up to an hour for all the servers (including the voice server, which is a separate server) to synchronize and realize that you are now an authorized user of the network. So, that was likely the issue.  That said, you also connected today at 1336Z. Did everything go OK?   Don Desfosse Vice President, Operations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turned out that i had forgotten to wait ofc, and empower my radios. Was only connected to unicom today, hopefully i didn’t waste your time 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
