8,75 kHz setting Vatsim

vbv058

Vatsim has changed frequency bands from 25kHz into 8,75 kHz.
How to do that in the airplane, now we have to do that in the VPilot box by : .com1 xxx.xxx.

@vbv058 Are you using the GNS530s? Because using the current WT version you can switch them to 8,33 spacing. Works well for me on VATSIM.

I only used the two Garmin GNS 430/530 in the MSFS2020 content manager ( version 1.1.14 & 1.1.18 )
In the piper not possible to set 121.705
In the PMDG DC6B it was possible to set 121.705

I deleted the Garmin GNS 430/530 version 1.1.14
In the piper not possible to set 121.705
In the PMDG DC6B it was not possible to set 121.705

I deleted Garmin GNS 430/530 version 1.1.18 in the Official/OneStore folder.
During Startup MSFS2020 this version was reinstalled again.

From https://github.com/pimarc/pms50-gns530 I loaded version 1.0.54 ( nov15 2022 ) and placed this in the Community folder.
In the piper not possible to set 121.705
In the PMDG DC6B it was not possible to set 121.705

I loaded the Garmin GNS 430/530 version 1.1.14
In the piper not possible to set 121.705
In the PMDG DC6B it was possible to set 121.705 but textures are little bit blurry now

So I am lost, which software / versions do you use?

@vbv058 Github is no longer needed! WT made a even better version that you can download from the Marketplace for free. It will become the default standard for the unit.

I have checked my software :
1 Checked that there is no Garmin in the Community folder
2 Deleted GNS Garmin 430/530 in content manager, only 1 standard ( non remove able ) remained.
3 Restarted MSFS
4 Loaded the GNS 430/530 from market place
5 Restarted MSFS
6 Loaded PA28 Turbo Arrow III at parking 1 in EDLV in Cold & Dark mode, After few moments I selected " Ready for Start. NOW I can select frequency 121.705 !
7 Restarted MSFS
8 Loaded PA28 Turbo Arrow III t runway with running engine : Bingo! now I can make frequency steps of 25 only!
=> this problem is sometimes in PMDG DC6B, but never in Fenix A320 or PMDG B737-800
So Back to FS9 ; always start up in the right way......
