Hi,

does someone knows how to engage the dual channel approach ? I remember that this was working in the past....

Another thing is: Is the capturing of GS with mcp 436 OK? I recognise here that the mcp does not hold the GS...

Thanks

Hi

Remember to tune both navs to the ILS frequency.

It should be fine, in FS9 it is working correctly.

Hi Jonathan,

thanks for the answer.... I will tune both NAVs.

I am using FSX, is there a difference to FS9 in handling the GS ?

Thanks

Yes FSX is different - Unless you have a 100% stable (no + - VS) prior to capture in FSX, the GS will fail due to changes in the way this is handled.
