By default my 430w and 530w default to 8khz increments... it's a pita to change comm freqs with that setup. Anyone know how to get them by default to the 25 khz channel spacing? I can do it in the GPS but I've got to make the change everytime and I'm getting tired of it. It used to work fine but somehow changed with the 1.6v patch.

Lower right knob, turn the large knob twice to the AUX page, turn the small knob twice to the Setup 1 page. Cursor down to COM Config hit enter. Cursor down to 25.0kHz, hit enter. Now cursor and click back to your main page. You're good to go. You will have to do this everytime you run FSX. For some damn reason RXP made 8.33kHz the default with the last update.

There is a new update 1.6.1 that just came out recently to fix this issue.

Excellent, will update right away!

Thanks to both Ryan (for asking) and Sean for your answer. I'm really pleased to have this little annoyance fixed. Yes, as Joe describes, you could change this, but you had to do it every single time you flew.

 

Thanks again, guys. Seems to work great!

Good news with the new update. Thanks for the heads up, guys.

Thanks for the HU. Is there a separate update installer or do I need to run the full installation again? Edited. Disregard, I've found the update. http://www.simforums.com/forums/gns-v1601-is-out_topic42432.html

You can always check if you are up to date from the Start menu.

 

Start> All Programs> RealityXP> Software Updates.

 

Just remember to update from both links if you have the unlimited package too, I tried just the unlimited link first and that ran an update, but after I checked the other link it said that it had an update for that too. Maybe if I had done it the other way around the unlimited update may not have been necessary.

Makes sense. I've never used that feature. Shame on me. Don't the gauges itself check the status when running? I think I saw that option somewhere.

Not sure to be honest.

Thanks for the tip by the way. Works like a charm, no link search needed. Next time you tell me sooner, ok? :P
