Annoying nonstop ATC weather report

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

ATC weather randomly connects and starts even on planes with no radio or radio off completely.

If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue:

Happened on MSFS2020 planes in 2024; so far it happened on the XF-11 by Flying Fries and the Spitfire by Flying Iron

[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue?

I did not, seemed excessive for this kind of issue. Only mod I have for avionics is the GTN750 freeware by PMS50

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?

Quite frequently since joining the SU3 Beta.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Nothing I did to trigger this, it just started randomly as I was flying the plane. Like it connected automatically. These planes have no ability to set radio frequency other than through the MSFS communication window.

Simply change the frequency through the GNS 530W.

Got it, thanks. But this also randomly started without ever selecting a frequency and I don’t think it should be repeating itself constantly as it did in the video.

You came across an ATIS/AWOS/ASOS on that frequency. As for it repeating itself as shown in a video you’re correct. That’s a bug.

Hi @NewtoniusPie ,

Your topic has been moved to the User Support Hub . The Bug Reporting Hub is to report issues with the base sim only (means without any 3rd party addons).
You should report this issue to the developers of the aircraft you mentioned.
If you are able to replicate the issue with a 1st party aircraft, then please feel free to create a new bug report. Thank you !

Not a bug. An ATIS broadcast continuously repeats as long as your COM radio is tuned to the frequency of the ATIS station and you are within reception range.

Did you watch the clip above? :slight_smile:

Ah! Yes, that’s not right!
