Does GSX change COM Freq?
« on: January 13, 2023, 01:13:20 pm »
Hi,
my COM1 Frequency changes after requesting debording... any GSX trigger to do so?
(All AI Piloting things are switched off in MSFS....)

Nowhere in the GSX code there anything that changes the com frequencies, they are not even read, least alone written. However, if you use the numeric keys to select the GSX menu option, if the radios are active, the key will be received by the simulator in any case, there's no way to prevent this.

You can fix it by choosing the menu option with the mouse.

I'm receiving this issue as well. I've tried clicking the pop-up window without using the keys, and the frequency always seems to switch to the ground frequency of the airport I'm at.

This has only started occurring in the last couple of weeks. I can't correlate it to a specific aircraft or sim update, however it is happening at any airport.

I have already tried this. This does not fix it, the frequency still changes.

I can only confirm there's nothing in the whole GSX code that deals with com frequencies. If they are changing, either the sim is getting a key press from the menu ( which should be fixed by using the mouse instead ), or it must be something else. Are you using an hotkey to open the GSX menu ?
