Greetings Cap, I created a very small single player mission on yesterday that is no where near as complex as the missions flown by GR. I do not think that people understand how time consuming it is to create the types of missions that you do. Thank you for the very hard work you and GR continue to put in for our education and enjoyment.

[@grimreapers]

Thanks man. Oh yeh, hours and hours.

[@exiletsj2570]

This is actually one of the most important things, for new people to grasp. It’s mostly overlooked or just not explained, causing a lot of confusion, like a lot of things in DCS. Cheers, cap.

[@grimreapers]

Agreed and pleasure

[@rudelchw]

Very clear and informative tutorial .. DCS Comms seems simple, but it actually has several nuances ... you manage to explain it in a very simple way, Thanks :)

[@Fershky98]

ive been looking for this for the longest time possible, thank you sooooo much

[@thomaslamont3237]

Great work Cap/GR. Appreciate this very much.

[@therocinante3443]

Hey man thanks for this!

[@Cloudglow]

Excellent work ED, pilots voices have been updated, great! I've always imagined to be a pilot with multiple personality disorder.

[@CarstenDittrich2014]

Thanks, Cap

[@W1ngnut27]

I would have assumed that you can find the frequencies in the kneeboard. Looks like I learned something new today!

[@grimreapers]

good call

[@TJkiwiOWEG]

this whole time I thought it was a matter of uncontrolled chaos and coincidence.

[@keilylmm6377]

Thanks for the info. How do you call the ball when 3/4 mile fnal approach to Carrier landing?

[@CapJeannot]

Merci !

[@Karlsmarten]

I would like a video explaining communication with other fighters and awacs.
Some of the communication I have a hard time understanding.

[@andrew1-170]

Thx

[@walkeritis]

I swear if it weren’t for you and spudknocker… I’d never get off the ground.

[@matk4731]

Thanks mate 👍🏻. I will just stick to easy coms. Some of the terminology is a little hard to understand at times. 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃

[@luclaviolette6612]

Ok. I need help here. Just a newbie and having problems getting the comm working. What key is assigned on the keyboard to open the menu of things to say. Please, anyone!

[@luclaviolette6612]

Ok so figured the way to get the menu but now I make a request (inbound) but get no replies!?

[@arrow2985]

Tank you and greeting

[@manu777tube]

Nice video, thanks. I was wondering about the "not easy communication mode" : when you give for example ATC right frequency, it's weird because you still have the whole communication menu with tanker, carrier.. What happen when you choose a tanker but have the frequency of a ground ATC?

[@jungletroll3844]

your pilot will speak but you get no response

[@Hosscoller]

Are you going to do a tutorial on the new in-game comms options? Not sure how to exactly set those up.

[@grimreapers]

Trying to find time

[@mutelatedLEMON]

That 250.400 Mhz is still VHF not UHF the 3.950 is HF, The bands go up in 3's 3-30Mhz is HF, 30-300 VHF, 300-3000 is UHF.

[@grimreapers]

thx

[@user-fx9hi4ce6e]

My tanker or awacs never respond to my calls?

[@kiloalphaone2622]

I press '\', but have no tanker option.

[@noambelder5850]

I’m using the UH-1H and for some reason the ATC doesn’t respond although I have the right frequency.

[@paulbeades6681]

See 8.35 in the vid? Does this help?

[@noambelder5850]

Paul Beades I already solved the problem. Thanks anyway 🙂

[@putinski666]

@@noambelder5850 hey whatd you do to solve the problem?

[@nickatgmail]

Hey Cap, Quick question, this has been driving me nuts. why are the DCS comm menus sometimes greyed out? It feels so random but I'm sure there's a logic or good reason for it, I thought if anyone would know it'd be you mate ;). Cheers!

[@grimreapers]

I am also stuck with this problem...

[@nickatgmail]

​@@grimreapers Haha, I think I may have figured it out after writing this question; I got on a DCS chat with one of their support agents and he said that this was their way of indicating an agency that was not correctly tuned while in Easy Comms mode; if I understood him correctly, the menu's you see as dark grey in Easy Comms, would be invisible if you then tried the same 'untuned radio' scenario in Realistic Comms mode.
This is is why, even though they appear greyed out in Easy Comm mode, they can still be used.

[@clutchmoto405]

My menu doesn't open

[@Elcicikos]

I have same problem. No communication menu

[@jungletroll3844]

i had the same problem. Just rebind it that worked for me. Also windows randomly decided my keyboard was now american so things like @ are now "
