Posted this on Flight One Sim Forum as well..What an AWESOME plane! Now a couple of basic questions.. First, if I want to do a traditional flight and intercept the ILS ie dial in ILS Nav Freq, can I do this in the Meridian? I don't see anyway to enter the ILS frequency or Nav frequencies. Is this A/C configured to use the Garmin GNS 530(Reality XP) only? I can use the STEC as the auto pilot, but I see no way of getting the ILS or VOR frequencies into the Multi gauge (HSI CDI etc). I looked at the docs and did a search on Nav frequency, but no hits.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks! Barry

I'm not sure the other posts made it clear: the Garmin GNS 530 is not only a GPS, but it contains a COM and NAV radio unit as well. The COM and NAV frequencies are shown on the left side of the screen, and can be changed by using the left stacked knob.VOlker :]

ditto. The GNS is effectively an integrated instrument handling nav comms as well as GPS etc.So as said, use the knobs on the left to dial in the frequency - those are our frequencies, not just the settings for the GNS.Hope this helps, happy flying...
