I'm lost

Hi all, I need some help.When I go through all the steps, I am still unable to connect to SB. I'm not real sure on what to do so I will explain my problem as best as I can. Ok, so I start SBRelay, then I start FS2004 and go to Multiplayer and join the server that comes up when I search (127.0.0.1). Then I set up my flight, no prob. Then I go to modules SBHost --> run. No probs again. Now I open up SB, I file a sensible plan than I go to Connect. This is where I am failing. What do I put for a callsign? and what server Ip address do I put, then what voice server do I put? Somewhere I am doing something wrong, because I will type in what I think I should put, and hit ok and then Advanced voice client will start up on its own and will give me an error message saying that I need to log on to a VATSIM server or something. So I go back into FS2004 and I right click in relay brown area to get the SB menu and sure enough I haven't connected. And under the text box I see a invalid callsign or something. This post may be kind of messy, but my head is about to explode.Basically this is what I want to do. I will make it simpleI want to fly my E-3 AWACS callsign Sentry 07 from Tinker AFB to Nellis AFB and have voice communications with ATC throughout the flight? How do I do it? If that's not possible then I would like to just fly a American Airlines 737 from JFK to Chicago or something.Your help is appreciated and I hope all this makes sense.Thanks,Jeff Smith USAF

A call sign is 4 or 5 letters or numbers that ID you on the radar scope. Can be the tail number of your Aircraft C-FMXR or N-Q23EN as well can be your flight number AC2354 - Air Canada 2354Its something that just come up with and if your not flying with a VA you just make something up.As for serversOpen up Servinfo under the Vatsim button there is one labeled IP click it and save that file to your SB folder, that will update you.

Keep it to just letters and numbers.
