Fenix Radio Stack

Featured Replies

I have a question regarding using the Fenix radio stack.  In the link below is a snapshot of the communication radios and their respective frequencies.  The two arrows are pointing to the “Receive” and “Transmit” switches that are turned-on for the left VHF1 radio.  All Receive & Transmit switches on the right VHF2 radio are off.  With this setup my expectation is to be able to transmit to and receive from communications over frequency 122.800 in VHF1, and this works fine.  The problem is that I also receive (can hear) transmissions over frequency 135.925 in VHF2 even though all the receive and transmit switches on that side are off.

How do I silence the VHF2 side but still have valid frequencies tuned ?

Good question!

Hope this can help:

Unless... RMP3 has VHF2 enabled AND the SPKR isn't mutted:

Same question as OP here. If someone can see something wrong with the OP’s settings, perhaps he would kindly point it out with a couple of lines of text. 

(The link from jcomm is to a 22 minute video on YouTube by someone wanting to tell you everything about everything: thanks but ain’t nobody got time for that.)

I concluded it was a bug in the Fenix but I’d love to be wrong.

I think this is a bug in the Fenix.  This problem persists after the release of a number of updates by Fenix but I did stumble on a workaround.  On the captain's side, click several times back-and-forth the VHF1 and VHF2 microphone and listening select buttons .  After a few clicks, the VHF2 frequency is no longer audible when it is not selected even if it's a valid, in-range frequency.  Strange but this is what I am seeing.

Wonder if turning down the volume on vhf2 will get you the desired result?

It probably does but I don't think this is the best approach.  I need the frequency "ready for use" volume and all during periods of high activity.  Also, after executing the procedure I described above, the VHF2 frequency works fine until the next time the A/C is loaded in MSFS.
