Hey everyone...I got a quick question that I hope someone can help me with...

I have been flying the default Baron 58 lately with updated flight dynamics and i've been having a blast with it. MS really did a nice job with it (or, at least, with everything but the flight dynamics ;)). But my problem is that when I manually operate the radios, the only frequencies that I can alter are the active frequencies :(

For example...

Say I'm communicating with ground on 121.8, and they tell me to taxi to runway 4 and then contact tower on 133.4. The ideal thing to do here is to have 121.8 as the active frequency and the enter 133.4 as the standby. I should be able to enter 133.4 without affecting the active 121.8, but I can't do this, the active always changes even when I put the mouse over the standby.

Does anybody know how to fix this? I mean, its not life or death and I've been flying with it like this for a little while, but it would sure help if I could find a way to set it right

PS-the problem is specific to the Baron...the stack works correctly in the 172 the caravan etc., which is kinda confusing because I was pretty sure that it was all the same gauge!

thanks for your help!

This is changed in aircraft.cfg

[Radios]
// Radio Type = availiable, standby frequency, has glide slope
Audio.1 = 1
Com.1 = 1, 1
Com.2 = 1, 1
Nav.1 = 1, 1, 1
Nav.2 = 1, 1, 0
Adf.1 = 1
Transponder.1 = 1
Marker.1 = 1

In this line changing the second number (Nav.1 = 1, 1, 1)
to (Nav.1 = 1, 0, 1)
or the other way wil get what you need.
