February 13, 201313 yr Attempting to tune ADF Radios to Freq 303 and 313. Using the knobs on the ADF Radio (Center Pedestal) the range only spans 19-175. No problem with NAV Radios. George Haarmann KPHX Drum & Bugle Corps Fan
February 13, 201313 yr ADF radio has a "triple" knob so to speak. Maybe you just missed it? Dmitrij Nazarenko
February 13, 201313 yr Author Thanks much.... Finally got the it. Took a bit of playing arround. George Haarmann KPHX Drum & Bugle Corps Fan
June 1, 201511 yr Thanks much.... Finally got the it. Took a bit of playing arround. Wow... Iv'e tweaked and tried all three knobs and still can't get past the 175 limit... Any finer instructions? Thanks.. Guillermo Schleimer Stuck in EHAM with passengers complaining and flight cancellation warnings.. :-) Guillermo Schleimer
June 1, 201511 yr Commercial Member and tried all three knobs and still can't get past the 175 limit... If you're not able to tune it, then you're not catching the right knobs, it seems. It's kinda tricky. Stuck in EHAM with passengers complaining and flight cancellation warnings.. :-) Use the FIX page instead. There's no way an airline would cancel a flight for a bad ADF unless it was required for a procedure (it isn't here). It's only being used for reference. Kyle Rodgers
June 1, 201511 yr Hi Kyle... Just a little humor on the cancellations... Honestly, I am zoomed in to where I can practically kiss the knobs... and no luck. Tried different view angle but nil... GS. Bottom knob changes numbers in this group: 175.00 Middle knob in this:175.00 little knob in this:175.00 But all of them max out at 175.00 and the jump to 19.00 Guillermo Guillermo Schleimer

I assumed, or it looked like the ADF had 2 place decimals and it actually only has one. So, yes, it maxes out to 1750.0 not 175.0 Lessone learned.... NAV Frequency settings all end in a two place decimal... ADF Frequencies end in a one place decimal.... Guillermo Schleimer Guillermo Schleimer
June 1, 201511 yr NAV Frequency settings all end in a two place decimal... ADF Frequencies end in a one place decimal.... Just as important, the NAV frequencies are shown in MHz and the ADF display is in KHz. It's not obvious from the panel or manual. Dan Downs KCRP

Though I'll never make commercial pilot in this lifetime..., I'll sure be ready for the Next I guess this is as real as it gets.... Guillermo Schleimer Guillermo Schleimer
