Ok here's what I think is happening. Correct me if I'm wrong, but did you set up the mission and or server for complex comms Arc? If so, the regular comm menu will not work. If it is set up for complex you must use the mic switch commands for the HOTAS. I just tested this on a training mission I did for take off and landing. While tuned in to the frequency for the tower I tried the regular comm menu. ATC,Batumi,request startup. No response. I hit mic switch forward (UHF AM), then went to ATC, Batumi, request startup, and they came back to me immediately. It should be exactly the same with the UHF (mic switch down) and VHF FM(mic switch aft) radios. Hope this helps... And yes, I have no life.... lol
