Having thought about this some more, I think the comm radios should probably belong to the avionics group rather than a new, separate group. This way you could easily adjust all radio (nav and comm) volumes relative to other groups, and then use the individual radio volumes from the aircrafts audio panel(if it has one) for fine tuning each relative to each other. >> 2.

If I adjust the volume for the radio tuned to ATIS, it will skip to a completely different part of the speech with each adjustment. It's seems the ATIS audio stream is getting restarted in a different position (or maybe regenerated?) every time the comm radios volume is adjusted. Tune a radio to ATIS, and then start adjusting that radios volume and it should become very clear what I mean. On another note, I have noticed some cockpit sounds change volume randomly, as if the volume or distance changed for some unknown reason. This is without having changed the view position and orientation in any way. For example, in the tu154b toggling the switch for the autopilot system will give you a short series of beeps. I can stay in same view, toggling the switch off and on, and the volume will often change randomly, sometimes normal, sometimes very quiet. cheers! --Jacob ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
