StevenM Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Hi, On approach to Lugano I wanted to tune nav1 to the ILS on 111.5. Strange thing was, I could only tune nav1 to 111.49 to 111.54. Nav2 was fine. Something i missed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using external hardware or other plugins for radio tuning? It may just have been a one-time "glitch". I tested the radios and could not even tune those frequencies...

StevenM Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 It was my second flight with the Saab and with X-Plane after two years. A bit early to see a pattern. The plugins: Airtrack,Gizmo,Pilotview. No extra hardware for the instruments. Airtrack was not connected to an iPad, and the iPad was not active. But I'm not ruling this one out as a possible cause. The flight: Very simple actually. After takeoff I took the 251deg radial to TRA(114.3) on Nav1 from there 174deg from TRA until the crossing on 151deg to SAR(111.3 or something) on Nav2. Enroute to SAR i tried to tune the Nav1 to 111.5 which resulted in the fluke. As you mentioned, it could well be a bad hairday for the radio, but also a rounding error (float->int) somewhere. S.
