Title: Channel 3?
Post by: Preon1 on November 13, 2001, 10:37:00 PM

Just recently, I've noticed that Channel 3 has been acting up.  I think it used to transmit to all friendly units within a certain radius, but from what I understand, now channel 3 only transmits to people who lifted from the same field as you...  Is this the case these days?  And if it is, can we go back?

I've allways understood Chl3 as broadcasting to all friendly units within a 25mile radius.  I haven't heard any change to this recently but I've been known to be wrong before... in fact many many many times before..... hehehe  :)

Channel 3 - The room channel allows players to broadcast to anyone in the room.  When in flight, everyone who takes off from the same field is in the room.  When not in flight, the rooms are the Map room and Tower.
