Hello, I’m running X-plane 11.55 and Xpilot, I’m happy to report that they do load up together. My only problem now is when I connect I cannot hear anyone including ATIS. When I use the PTT the the TX turns green. Again,  all the software/hardware seems to be working just fine. So it comes down to, do I assume since the connection works it’s all good or does someone have an idea of how I can verify it. I have called atc with no response, possibly I’m out of range or the mic is not working.  Thank you.

tune both com1 and com2 to 122.8

set TX to either and RX to both

transmit on one and you should hear yourself on the other

Cheers,

You can also use something like 122.75 (I personally use 122.65) for the initial TX/RX check to keep clear of the UNICOM frequency.

Correct.  Any frequency will work.  I suggested 122.8 because its transmit range is articificially limited downward, and, that it's nearly guaranteed not to be in use as a nearby control facility frequency.

Cheers,
