    Yes, it is driven by a specific software "Tempest", made by Cockpitsonic as well.
    And they promised to amend their programm for me, if I tell them the FSUIPC offset for the RW "Transmit On" and "Transmit Off" command.

    We've only done a simple test so far and the offsets work fine. just haven't rigged it up into the sim yet.

    In the 737NG there can be 3 PTT buttons for each pilot - 1) on the yoke, 2) on the radio control panel (pedestal), and 3) on each corner of the glareshield (just to the side of the master caution lights). We might configure the one on the pedestal as PTT for private voice.

    We learned through experience that it is very difficult for the pilot-not-flying to use the yoke PTT while the pilot-flying is wrestling the beast down the approach ... it's hard to press that PTT when the yoke is moving all over the place in front of you!

    A further question on this topic... we've finally wired up our 737 audio panels (pedestal) and have the INT switch wired as our push-to-talk for private voice. This is offset 3110 - values 1068 on, 1069 off ... correct ?

    Trouble is it just doesn't work. Switch and code are working fine - the values are being sent, but SB just doesn't seem to pick up these commands.

    Any clues guys? (Pete ?)
