November 9, 200520 yr Hi there, I have read various members posts about not being able to tune the ils on 747-400 for approach. I have this problem and tried everything that people have said but nothing happens?I have selected the runway on the DEP/APP page but the ils on the NAVRAD page does not tune it, I have tried to enter the ils manually but not quite sure what the course bit means after the runway freq i.e 108.90/xx, where do I get the course bit from?I have entered the route correctly including the dep and arr airports and runways but cannot get the ILS to tune no matter what I try?Can anyone help?Look forward to repliesgavi25

LOL....)We have made some functionality changes here with the upcoming Service Update (I believe) which will improve the auto-tuning dramatically...In the mean time- manually tuning an ILS is pretty easy:FFF.ff/CCCFFF.ff == FrequencyCCC == Course of the inbound ILS.When I fly around to places where I do not have the navigation charts- I use the MSFS map to find the airport I am interested in- then click on the green ILS fan so that the "about this" menu pops up... it contains the ILS freq. and course information.....(note- if you type in the wrong course- it'll create problems for the approach! be careful!)
