PilotEdge Forums

hi, im new to pilotedge. i can hear the atc and the atc can hear me, but i cant hear other players when they talk to atc. for ex:
atc: turn next taxiway
pilot: (no sound)
atc: taxi to 26R via A
me: taxi to 26R via A

See the sticky thread here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3681

i watched the vid.. is it because they're at another airport so i dont hear them? if they were at the same airport i would hear them?

You'd only hear another pilot if they're on the exact same frequency you're on. Even in real flying, sometimes a tower controller will be handling tower/ground, and you'll hear them give a command to another plane on another frequency and never hear the read back.

oh that makes sense so the atc is transmitting multiple freq's

Correct, as do a lot of real world controllers...especially in the TRACON and enroute facilities.

The airport is irrelevant, it's the frequency, altitude and distance which determines if you'll hear another player or not. It's pretty much like a real radio.
