ATIS Missing on Ficticious Airports?

If you are not getting the "Tune ATIS" option at airports which are not in the default FS2004 database - such as Kai Tak (9Dragons version) or a ficticious airport you have created yourself, the following should correct the problem:a. Open the airport in Afcad or similar utility.b. Under Lists, locate the Com frequencies and then highlight the ATIS entry and select Properties.c. The "Name" data must be the airport's ICAO code. See screenshot.In the case of Kai Tak, the afcads which come with the enhancement all read Hong Kong instead of VHHX.Just changing the Name data allowed the ATIS to now be an option on my ATC menu. If you are adding the ATIS, just be sure the ICAO code of the airport is in the Name box.Hope this is helpful.
