Pressing 1 to reply to ATC sometimes doesn´t work

[heliognr]

Pressing 1 to reply to ATC sometimes doesn´t work, and I get “flight N. x did you copy?”… I did press it normally, but sometimes it just doesn´t recognize…

I often have to press 1 twice.

Before pressing it, wait 1-2 seconds after ATC stops talking.

I know, I always wait until it stops talking but sometimes it just doesn´t assume the key press

Hello @heliognr

We moved this post to the #bugs-and-issues:atc-navaids section, which did not exist when you originally posted. It’s better placed here for more visibility should others have ideas.

My main issue with the ATC number system is it responding as if I had pressed “1” when I haven’t! With a frequency of about once a flight, ATC mistakenly responds to a Ctrl-1 combination as if I pressed “1”. This is especially problematic, as Ctrl-1 is used a lot - it’s the main simulation cockpit panel view in almost all default aircraft!

This is a real problem when I’ve gone in for a panel close-up and ATC thinks I’ve asked for a vector to the next waypoint! Now I’ve got to respond twice to clear the ATC interference, plus a portion of my instruments are now covered by a text copy of the message!
