    I saw some mention about the lack of 8.33kHz spacing com radios and mention of a possible future fix.
    Now that Vatsim has rolled out 8.33kHz it makes using the PA28 on Vatsim awkward.
    Is there a fix for this?

      The current analogue radio stack in the PA28s is simulated based on our reference aircraft, which is why those radios don't have 8.33Khz spacing. We do have this feedback logged as a feature request though, and we will look into this for a future update.

      In the meantime, there should be smaller spacing options available on the various GPS options that can be toggled on the EFB.

        @Mark the GPS units also seem to limited to 25kHz spacing too. Can't seem to change this in the EFB settings

          The GPS itself (not the EFB) has a setting for channel spacing (like it does IRL). Look under the AUX pages

              @Mark said in 8.33kHz radios?:

              Interesting! I thought 8.33kHz was very popular/mandatory in Europe, which is where I figured your reference plane(s) would be based.

                I'm not clued up on the regulations myself, but our reference photos for the PA28s were taken in 2016/2017, so that may have been before any 8.33KHz regulations were put in place.
