ADF question

acording to the manual the picture above shows you are set to a VOR the switch on the RMI . also dme 1 is light is on so that is a VOR.

@woolies We need some clarification from the devs on the operation of the ADF< the manual is very sketchy.

Nope, it is the BIA NDB. Switch is with ADF facing the RMI ... 100%

I did also have a VOR (SAM 113.35) active and could toggle between the 2 with th VOR / ADF switch on the RMI

Another pic with the NDB on the double arrow with different switch position. Can also hear the morse of the NDB. So seems to work fine. The thing is just getting the freq set correctly which is fiddly.

@woolies ok, I will give it another go thanks.
i think part of the problem is the poor tunning on the selector.

The old school ADF controllers are not that well suited to MSFS. The simulator also doesn't support ADF tuning very realistically, you need to have the frequency tuned exactly before any signal is picked up. At the moment the tooltip on the tuning knob is pretty essential for tuning it accurately.

ok thank you for your reply, I will try with the tool tip on

if you have flow pro you can set up a simvar viewer for the ADF frequencies

Hope we get a tooltip view for ADF only in the future? Maybe option to replace the strength indicator with digits? With BFO selected?

I’m glad there are threads about this - i’m have the same issue with the Caravan Pro and the NDB 345.5 NWI - the KR ADF radio wont input the .5s - so annoying when trying to do NDB approaches at EGSH. I’m going to ask at my old flight training centre to see what they say.
