Radio Buffer Explained
The radio buffer bar has 4 separate channels to tune and choose from.
Radio Tuning
Open the typing buffer by pressing
/ for radio channel 1
Shift + / for radio channel 2
Control + / for radio channel 3
Alt + / for radio channel 4
depending on the channel to be opened.
Tune a radio by clicking in the radio slot, and then typing the number.
There are 106 different channels, any of which can be used. The
channels serve different purposes and reach different ears, so
depending on what you need to say and to whom, use the appropriate
channel.
The host command .radio <x yyy> where x is the radio number and
yyy is the channel, can also be used to tune the radio.
Channel 100: This is the common channel—every player can send
and receive messages when tuned to channel 100. If you are in the
Control Tower or a designated Headquarters screen, however, only
players in that room receive your channel 100 transmissions.
To communicate with players in flight, use one of the squadron, country
or private channels, as listed.
