Hello,
You say, "Acknowledge command" to ATC and you get a "squeal" sound, because ATC
is communicating with another aircraft. Try using the simple phrase...
"Try again."
and try to sneak in between other planes.
I hope this helps.
Robert

How much time to you recommend that I wait for and how do I know when it is
my turn to reply back to ATC without stepping on anyone's audio traffic?

I hate traffic add-ons now, but since you're asking.
in MSATC, The priority is the controller. that means the controller will
instantly transmit something if he has to. but AI pilots do not
readback instructions fastly. they wait abit then readback.

Hi to all.
I am enjoying the new program Ultimate traffic version2.
All I had to do is just simply keep clicking on next when I installed the
program.
It automattically loads when you click on the FSX icon to fire up FSX.
It is a cool program.
But here is my problem.
In short.
When the ATC contacts you and give you your instructions, when is a good
time to jump back in to hear the confirmation coming back to ATC through the
soundcard and speakers.
Usually what I like to do is as soon as ATC is finished with my
instructions, I try to immediately try to read them back. In short I try to
take advantage of that empty air space or that silence on the radio to read
back the instructions back to the ATC when they are finished talking.
But there have been times when we get a huge pile up of com traffic and the
ATC is giving instructions to everyone.
But you still have some empty space on the radio in between the birds
calling back to that ATC.
In short.
When is it the best time to reply back to the ATC?
How do you know when it is the best time to read back the instructions that
the local ATC just gave to you without stepping on anyone's audio traffic??
I sure could use some timing tips.
I've ran a talking stopwatch and tried waiting five and ten seconds of
empty com time listening to empty statick when the com traffic with no luck.
I wait five seconds, ten seconds or what to make sure that the frequency is
clear and that I don't step on anyone's traffic and I'm not repeatting my
traffic about three or four times.
Because IYP hears me, but until I can get my timing down, UT2 doesn't hear
me until I repeat the traffic confirmation about three or four times.
Will deeply appreciate the help.
I had to get a refund for radar contact since the disk was damaged.
So waiting for a new compy of radar contact.
But for those BVI pilots.
With the extra traffic going off all around you.
You get better audio clues on which bird is in front of you and which birds
are around you by having everyone and the ATC traffic going off back and forth.
You also can see which birds are landing in front of you as well.
Just like the sight can do with their normal eye sight.
I think UT2 pretty much gives us our normal eye sight via our ears.
There is a UT2 demo out on the flight one web page.
I highly recommend that you down load it and play with it.
This is my two cents on the UT2 program.
Thanks for the help.
