Most excellent diggit.  Glad to see that the sides stayed even and everyone had fun.  I liked Crazy8's friends.  Noticed that Cap has even figured out the AvA bomb sight.  Good times.

only sort of figured it out. i missed the radar tower on a vbase 2x.

 and ya.....it stayed pretty even all night, and the flying was incredible.

Flew last night and had a great time.  Really enjoyed the set-up.  I thought the match-ups were great.  BAR thanks for the pointers in the P-38.  To the allies---good teamwork and assisting on clearing 6's.  Again a great time.

its probably me. havent quite figured out how to tune and transmit properly. I wish AH had a downloadable manual. Searching for this stuff in online help doesnt work very well for me.

to tune to a specific channel, bring up your text buffer as if you were gonna type something. just above where you see your text appear as you type, you see those boxes? all the way to the right, there's one labeled "vox". if you tune....say 138.....in there, then hit enter, you will then use the "T" key to speak on that channel. only those tuned to that channel will hear you though.

 i think it is the F12 key to speak to those in range. i've got that one mapped on my throttle as a PTT button.

I tried that the other night and it didnt seem to work. Are there published freq for the two sides in AvA?

Tune to your own name online, in the vox channel. Try hitting "T" to talk. You should be able to hear yourself.

To test your vox, enter into the radio buffer ".radio 5 Normh3" (assuming Normh3 is your in-game id).  Then if you press the key you have mapped to speak on a channel, you should be able hear yourself if everything is working properly.

There are no "set" frequencies for one side or another, and it seems that a lot of folks are simply using the range vox which works quite well as the fights are generally close to base.

on the map we have now, we could probably fight base to base with a  few 5" guns.
