Good morning!
Yes, the hotkey looks good now and using it is seen by PF3:
Code: Select all
3/12/2017 8:56:04 PM: 820 - ****** HotKey #0 detected!
3/12/2017 8:56:05 PM: 870 - Ground Altitude=596 ClrdAlt=24 Terrain=0 COM=128.3
You are tuned to 128.3 MHz, but except for FSS, Approach and Departure there are no valid frequencies for EKSB:
Code: Select all
Frequencies for WP: 0 EKSB
Mul - 0 
Uni - 0 
Grd - 0     
Twr - 0
Clr - 0     
App - 123.5 
Dep - 123.6 
FSS - 126.4
I suggest adding at least one using Options #2.
If you add only a Tower frequency, it will do the jobs of Clearance and Ground, too.
For a first test this might be the easiest.

Or add a Unicom frequency, if you want to keep this as an uncontrolled airport, but the comm procedure is a bit more complicated, because there is less hand-holding. I think the minimum steps here are to contact FSS at 126.4, press 0 to open your flight plan, press 6 before entering the runway, press 8 when leaving the pattern. Then contact Departure.

Or just ignore the first parts, take off, and manually contact Departure when in the air :)

Hi ThomasPM
thanks for your great Support; just recognised that it wasn't an issue from the program itself, rather than it was the simple fact that the Airport hasn't had any frequency. Acually apologisze for inconvinience and work I caused.
Just tied another aiport and everthing worked - nice lessons learnt

regards

No problem ... if only all issues were that easy to solve :)
