So it is with much trepidation that I have to admit, How do I tune the Comm/Nav 1 radio. I see the control heads for CN2, DME, ADF, Audio panel, but I had to shoot an approach on CN2 using the Nav2 gauge(#8 in the users manual). I feel stupid. Thank you for pointing out my oversight. I'm looking forward to putting this issue at ease. I appreciate any and all comments.. yes, even that I'm a ding dong. Thank you.
This is more than likely due to an error in the aircraft cfg file. You want to look for the following lines and make sure they are identical to the lines below.
If you notice that Nav1 has three 1's which means it available has a stand by frequency and the glide slope is on nav 1.
Now if the radio in your plane does not have a standby frequency than you need to change the nav 1 line to read as follows 1,0,1
the same thing applies to nav 2 it should read as follows 1,0
This is a common mistake made. I f this does not solve your problem than you might have a gauge problem.
Some aircraft use what are called CAB files you have to put the entire folder in your gauge folder and not the individual gauges they will not work this way
You can tell because the line will look like this B747.cab
CAB is short for cabinet.
[Radios]
// Radio Type = availiable, standby frequency, has glide slope
Audio.1 = 1
Com.1 = 1, 1
Com.2 = 1, 1
Nav.1 = 1, 1, 1
Nav.2 = 1, 1, 0
Adf.1 = 1
Transponder.1 = 1
Marker.1 = 1
Hope this helps
