Babyboomerboy Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I am testing the theory that there is no stupid question. How do I talk to on the radio? I can hear the tower but how do I respond? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Since I don't have this Sim, yet, I would Ass-u-me that there is an ATC window to pop up and you click on your appropriate reply? :confused: Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

tiger1962 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Charlie, you Ass-u-me correctly! Press the Scroll Lock key to open/close the ATC window. You can also delegate radio comms to your co-pilot from the drop-down menu on screen. Tim Wright "The older I get, the better I was..."

Babyboomerboy Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 I found the ATC window and it tells me what to say to the tower. However I don't have a button to push to talk. Is there somewhere that I go to get my microphone on my headset to work. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babyboomerboy Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 You mean I don't actually communicate with the tower? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 For actual talking, you may want to investigate VATSIM. https://www.vatsim.net/ Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babyboomerboy Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 Thank you for your response. What about flying as a group. Doesn't everyone talk to each other as they fly? In iracing I can communicate with the other drivers as we race. I press a button and talk. In Flight Sim I don't have a button so I can't figure out how the video explain what to say to the tower but not how to make contact. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPICU Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Yes, it is frustrating not to be able to communicate with someone. I have been using Teamspeak while doing Multiplayer it just works great. Nice people, knowledgeable and fun group flights on Saturdays. https://digitalthemepark.com/ Tomswfl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
