Thanks for your answers Vassilii, but my communication problem exists
even with only com 1 tuned to the tower. I receive no error messages,
and no dialog box appears. I suspect that this problem is more related
to the fact that flightgear often ignores my key presses. For example
when using v/V to switch between views, the shift+v key press is
sometimes not recognised. This is also the case for many other such
keys, they may work one or 2 times, but thereafter they are ignored. In
the ATC case I may get a dialog box on my first ', but not any responses
thereafter. Similarly, when not tuned to a correct frequency I only get
the error message informing me that I'm not on the correct frequency on
my first attempt, and no responses further on even if a change to
correct frequency.
It is difficult to debug this any further since the failures are
somewhat erratic.
I apologise for some of the weird sentences in my previous message. I
am using Dragon NaturallySpeaking to dictate, and it sometimes
misunderstands me. I have corrected the recognition errors I overlooked
in the previous mail in this one.
