Post subject: | no atis freq at start up |
Hi all, I have made 6 flights the last 2 weeks. 5 of them where the same flights. Lebl-Eham with PMDG 747v3 Only on 1 flight i got the atis freq. Today i've made a flight Omdb-Eham. Again no atis freq showed up. I have read somewhere here in the forum that you can filled it in manually. So i did that, ticked the box, saved it en restart pf3. Quess what: no atis freq and the box was unticked though i've saved it. When i typed in the airport icao, press enter and show fs freq. i can see what the atis freq. is! My question is: why isn't it showing up together with the clearance, ground and tower freq.? Best regards John |

In my installation the ATIS for OMDB is on 131.70, and the log shows that you have correctly tuned to that frequency. Do you have a file PF3\Data\user_facilities.dat? If yes, can you post it here? And (while PF3 is not running) rename it to make sure it does not interfere? P.S.: Ah, I see you're flying on airway UL980. When you do it again, please look down while flying over DLE/ROBEG/BADMU/MOBSA/OSN and you might see me there flying in a Cessna 337 about 20000 feet below you, as this is a leg of my standard test route for the new PF3 betas (EDDP to EDDG) ![]() |

Hi ThomasAH, I found 131.7 on the net. Before the latest update i could always see it when i start up pf3 (with all the other freq.). Now it is saying 0.00 I hope i've attached the correct file! Best regards John |

There is nothing configured for OMDB in it, but the file has changed yesterday, so I don't know what it looked like when you had the problem. Anyway, please try with this file renamed and see if ATIS works again. |

Hi ThomasAH, The only thing i did was putting 131.70 into it, ticked the box befor it and saved it. Though it didn't save it i removed it because when i checked it, it was already known. To make sure: ALL of the airports i have checked, (like eidw, lebl, eham) ATIS freq are shown as 0.00! I renamed that file and run pf3 again. still showing 0.00 at different airports. Also did a rerun of data base with no luck. I've attached the latest one. Thnx Best regards John |

I'm not sure if ATIS frequencies are really read from the simulator. I think they are stored in a text file in PF3\Data\ Can you check if the file corresponding to your simulator looks ok? (something with "atis" and the name of the flight simulator in the file name) |

Yes they are. If the airport in question doesn't have ATIS by default then it needs to be added by the user |

@ ThomasAH, Yes i have 3 of those files. 1 for fs9, 1 for fsx and 1 for p3d. But they are .DAT files For fsx is 56 kb @ Dave, LEBL does have atis. from 6 flights i have made from this airport it only showed up 1 time without doing anything. When i go to option 2, add new facility, there you can enter icao, press enter and all those freq. showed up. Can i assume that it is there? By filling it in the facilities part and ticked the box and then save it, it won't show up either. By checking here again, i see the box got unticked. (looks like the safe button is not working). I have attached the atis_freq for fsx. Any more suggestions what to do? Best regards John |

You have KPHL twice. Not sure if this can cause such problems. |
