Radio lockup

[cavity]

I am having problems with tuning NAV 1and Nav2 radios on a plane.  Thanks to those who supplied suggestions, but I am still having problems. I can change from 108 to 109, through the whole cycle, but I cant change past the decimal.  It is locked at .30 on Nav 1 and .80 on Nav2.   Anybody have any ideas on what is causing this?  Thanks, Todd

This is going to sound strange but I have a B727 panel that has the same problem I discovered if you put the mouse over the dial move it till you see a + show up, now click on the dial and this should change the decimals only it will not change the whole numbers then if you keep moving the mouse farther to the left of the dial it will allow to change the entire number decimal and all.
This is just the way this gauge works. It took me a while to figure this out.

Thanks Gary, I tried that too.  It is strange, this is the first time Ive had this kind of problem.  I tried everything, nothing is working, I wondering if it is in the software itself.  Ill keep in touch and let you know if I figure it out.  Take care, todd

Cavity my info was incorrect place the mouse over the dial move the mouse until a - shows up then left click this should do the trick.

Try to switch on the "Avionics", assign a key to that function and press it. Does anything happen?

I had that problem with the PMDG 737 when it was first released.

Thanks for all the suggestions.  I finally figured it out.  I needed to right click on the dial to change the decimals.  First time in 5 years I had a radio that you need to right click on.  Of course, now another problem, I cant get the voice pack to work at all.  It says to hit Shift~ to get it started but to no avail.  Worked on it three hours last night and still cant hear a thing.  Does anyone know what section in the aircraft cfg to alter to allow a plane to track a radial more precisely?  Too much back and forth on this one.  Thansk again for all the help, Todd

Cavity You should not have to alter anything to track a radial. make sure you have the correct course dialed in on the vor then use the nav mode on the auto pilot not the heading mode. The heading mode will not correct for wind drift the nav mode will. Leave the GPS NAV switch on nav, unless you or flying a flight plan then switch to gps. This will track the flight plan not the radial unless they are the same line

Gary, this is an old 727 that will only track the vor set in the NAV 1 frequency.   Then you have to select the course you want to follow. It doesnt have a nav/gps switch, just heading and nav/vor lock.  For some reason it doesnt track the course very well, it crosses it back and forth until about 10 miles away and then finally lines up.  I know the signal gets stronger as it gets closer, but I would like it to track the course more like the default planes do.  Is there a setting in the cfg that would make it more sensitive?  Thanks
