May 23, 200818 yr Hello,after installing the Update 1.20 (FS9) the autotuning of the ILS frequency doesn't work anymore. The only way to catch the ILS is to enter the frequency manually, ohterwise the NAV/RAD page of the CDU shows "PARK". I'm using the FlyEngravity CDU. Is this a known bug already?GreetingsTom

May 23, 200818 yr Commercial Member :) anyway no probs here with auto tune and I still have cycle 0805 but I did backup quite a few folders and copy them back after the update as I have a few sounds and other things customized. Rob Prest
May 23, 200818 yr Rob,I concur...I'm sure I didn't see any AIRAC files going across when I installed the update...0805 was present when I checked the IDENT Page.ILS Auto-Tune also worked once I had elected to return to the departure field, having selected the approach on the DEP/ARR Page.Kind RegardsSteve Bell Steve Bell "Wise men talk because they have something to say.

May 23, 200818 yr I just checked this to be 100% sure. Flew CDG/IST. The ILS autotuned, but stayed in park. About 25 miles from TD, the ILS switched from park, to active, and I was receiving the localizer.What airport and ILS were you using? Maybe it's an issue with a specific ILS and/or airport.
May 24, 200818 yr I checked several airports (EDDL, KBOS, KORD). The ILS worked perfect with these airports in version 1.10. My airac cycle is 805. I think it's a bug in the PMDG Engravity CDU interface. May be it's incompatible with version 1.20.I will post this issue direct to PMDG support.Greetings Thomas Borkert
May 24, 200818 yr Ditto on the ILS freq. not showing on the FMC Init. page. However, the ILS does function at the destination rwy indicated in the FMC and gives off both localizer and GS functionality.jack
