Anyone use the Razbam Metro III on PE lately?

I was hoping to fly the Metro on PE the other day, but could never get the Comms working, i.e. I dialed in the KBUR clearance frequency (118.00) and got nothing. I loaded up a different aircraft and comms worked fine. So, I went back to the Metro and same thing - nothing. I then noticed that my frequency actually read 118.01. Next, I tried Burbank ground on 123.9 and I saw that the Comm read 123.93. Could this be my issue? Is anyone else experiencing this?

if this is p3d or fsx, try typing .com1 118.00 in the text entry area in the PE client and hit enter.
see if that forces it to tune to that freq.

Well, Keith, your suggestion worked, proving it was indeed a comm issue. Now, if I can figure out how to do this without entering it in the text box.

In the following thread I found a reference about a lost comm issue. The thread mentions a problem with the old/new versions of simconnect. I suspect the offsets are different and that's why the radio tuning isn't working.
I personally would be worried about running multiple versions of simconnect even though the thread says it's OK. Suggest doing the homework on this issue as likely you are "on your own".
