Hi Iain and PSS,I have the boxed 320's and boxed 330/340's, Win2k, FS2k2.Even with a number of installs and patches behind me, I have /never/ heard the 300 alt callout.I do have the retard...retard though. If somehow it can be corrected, it would be appreciated.

[Guest Phoenix_7]

cannot thing of anything to check or correct to get the 300' calloutthe sounds are built into the gauge fileJohnPSS SUPPORTsupport@phoenix-simulation.co.ukhttp://www.avsim.com/pss/phoenix.jpg

Hi again John,Thank you for your reply.Are you certain that an answer of sort can't be found somewhere in the PSShierarchy? As I pointed out in my previous post, my buses consistently haven't had a 300 callout. IMHO it would vaguely point at some "reproducability" (is there even such a word?) I even recall my thought and disappointment after installing the A340 pro package: "Why didn't they fix it?" but maybe it's at my end somehow a quirk exists?

Hello again,I do get every callout apart from the 300ft, I get "retard" too. Is there really nothing that can be done about it, as it does take some realism away when you are on an approach?

[Guest NormanB]

Like John, I get the same callouts, including the 300. The sounds are part of the gauge file so if one works they really all should work.

Hi!I to seem to have the same callout-problem. The 300-callout sounds strange. I don't think it says "one-hundred" though, more like "un-hundred" because the 100-callout clearly says "one-hundred" and they don't sound the same. I have this in A320 and A340. I haven't checked the A330 yet.I've made a small video(1MB) of the callouts during landing if anyone is intrested. Unfortunately I don't have any way of getting it up for download but I'll be happy to mail it to you if you want to check it out further. You can reach me on sas391@telia.com But perhaps this is accurate to the real callouts in an Airbus?Kind regards .... Mats

[Guest iainm]

Hi MatYes! That is what is wrong with my callout too, the 100ft is perfectly clear, but the 300 appears to say "unhundred", its a bit distorted. Its definetly not accurate to the real airbus.Thats a more accurate description, thanks Mats.Iain.

[Guest iainm]

Hello againJust wondering if there could be some responce made from the support team now the problem has been made clear. All callouts are fine apart from 300, which is more like "unhundred". Is there any suggestions about why this happens and how to get rid of it?Thanks for your time.

[Guest MatsH]

Well, it's been a while and my problem still remains. By reading your answers I understand that this is a thing that can not happen. However, it does happen. To me and to many others. I've finally uploaded the video I mentioned erlier so that you can see (and hear) for yourself.It would be really nice if a solution could be found.The video shows a landing with the A340, but the same problem occurs with the A320 and A330 panels as well.Regards ....

Hi againthanks for uploading the video. It has been a while, looks like there's no solution but at least this is proof!Iain

[Guest iainm]

HiI'm sure my A330 and A340 say 400, 100, 200, 100..etc instead of 300. Has that happened to anyone else, or do I need my ears tested?:-)

[Guest vrandar]

On the video I distinctly heard 400, 300, 200... etc. I don't see where the problem is. Perhaps it depends on the quality of your sound setup.Rob Elliott, EGPE InvernessPSS Airbus Support andAirbus Fleet Training Captain, British Airways Virtual airbus@speedbirdonline.co.ukhttp://www.speedbirdonline.co.uk/airbus.htmlhttp://www.bavirtual.co.uk

That's very interesting. I hear everything too but the 300 does not sound like 300! Are you sure you heard a clear 300? If you did then it's obviously a select problem, but I don't have a clue what that would be!Thanks for the news!RegardsIain
