Hey everyone, I am not sure if something isn't working right or if I am just missing something super obvious, but I can't get the radios to work with the 2D panel. I can set a what I assume is an active frequency, by clicking in on it, so that the white frame appears, I can also change the frequency, but I never get anything in. The ATC windows in the sim says "no radio". As such, I can also not tune into VOR or ILS. The ADF 2 works fine for me, though.
EDIT: I now realised it works fine when I load in the aircraft, but if I set it to cold and dark, the radio man just leaves and never comes back.

Thanks, that helped me figure it out. Does the ILS indicator not show radial deviation on a VOR?

Hi Kopolla.
It shows if you are high/low or left/right of ILS , remember this is a WW2 aircraft and ILS was not like todays radio nav equipment , i was surprised that ILS was even on the B17 aircraft , all be it basic in ww2 , and was mainly in the USA at that time , so was pretty redundant outside of the USA .
