Changing Departure and Approach Frequencies

Featured Replies

I have MyTraffic, which substanially increases the number of AI aircraft. Here's the problem:At the big airports KATL, KDFW, KLAX, etc (I'll concentrate on the US)there are so many arrivals that most of the time approach never gets around to giving me a handoff to tower and them I'm screwed.I've gone into the AFCAD files for KATL and KA2L (for example) and successful changed the ground and tower frequencies so that the noth runways have different freq's from the south runways. This helps alleviate some of the radio congestion. But, in the AFCAD communications screen, the frequencies that you can assign for Approach and Departure don't seem to do anything. No matter what I make them, Departure for the north runways is 127.25, Departure for the south runways is 119.80, and Approach for both north and south is 119.30.I would really love to change the Approach freq's so that there are separate frequencies for aircraft arriving on the north runways and south runways. This iwill reduce the radio congestion and hopefully give the controller time to hand me off to tower.Is there anyway to do this?Thanks,James

Make sure you have made no back up files that end in .BGL. FS will use those instead.Hope this helps,-- Tom GibsonCalifornia Classic Propliners: http://www.calclassic.com/Cal Classic Alco Page: http://www.calclassic.com/alco/Freeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.com/ San Diego Model RR Museum: http://www.sdmodelrailroadm.com/Drop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___
