Peter 1028518 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 (edited) The X-Plane client takes over the radio channels completely when logged in, also when a radio is tuned to an ATIS frequency. As POSCON does not have active ATIS I would prefer the client mixes X-Plane radio channel voice with POSCON voice. I use ATIS regularly when arriving at an airport. Or is there a setting for it?

Network Directors Andrew Heath Posted December 26, 2021 Network Directors Share Posted December 26, 2021 I think the idea is that we don't want the ATIS from X-Plane being used if you are connected to the network because ATC may have different information for you. The problem is that the ATIS/ASOS/AWOS we were providing previously had a bug in the system and we had to take it offline indefinitely until such time as we can make repairs. I expect we will have ATIS/ASOS/AWOS working in the next couple of months. Apologize for the inconvenience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, In the meantime I would prefer a preference setting which mixes in the X-Plane radio sound in to the system on request. For now getting the QNH cloudbase, wind and visibility you have to switch to the weather setting screen which ghosts your connection. There is not much ATC on POSCON so there is not really much alternative. Edited December 26, 2021 by Peter 1028518 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olaf Blom (1016062) Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 POSCON has the web ui, which also has a weather request option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have a look. That will at least partly solve the issue. Will it work for any ATIS station enroute as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olaf Blom (1016062) Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 With the Web UI you can request ATIS's, METAR's and TAF's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
