Greetings,
I did, but nothing changed.
It also doesn't echo back when I change the altitude during a flight.
Actually no problem because it automatically contacts ATC while
climbing or descending, but I am really wondering about the flight
following announcements, why they don't work.
Regards,
Patrick.

I have not seen that exact issue. Have you tried reinstalling IYP?Blind and Visually impaired Pilots mailinglist

Subject: [bvipilots] Problem with flight following announcements
Hey all,
I am Patrick and I am using IYP for quite a while now. I'm usually flying
IFR flights with direct GPS routing. In the voice commands lists, I read
about flight following. It says that I can always envoke my copilot to make
a flight following announcement by saying "make a flight following
announcement". So far, so good, but it doesn't work.
In fact, it only gives me the usual clicking sound, but nothing in addition.
I activated flight following, cargo flight following and general aviation
flight following, but mike remains silent, as far as flight following
announcements are concerned.
I always have a cruising altitude of something over 20000 feet with
cargo/passenger airlines such as the boeing, and the with general aviation
aircrafts mike should already start giving flight following announcements
after reaching 3000 feet.
Is there anything I did wrong? Is it possible that the required data for
flight following announcements for IYP is missing, does all that belong to
the database which might need an update?
I hope somebody can help me.
Best regards,
Patrick.
