Unicom and ATIS

[Atriusftw]

I really miss the option to tune and listen to Unicom and ATIS. Tuning ATIS is useful as a controller to verify that it is working properly. Listening to Unicom is interesting when handing pilots over in case of no overlaying ATC :)

Would it be possible to implement such a feature?

You can listen to any ATIS if they're properly defined in database by just adding the atis callsign as a station! For unicom this is not possible at the moment

Ah, guess i'm just unlucky with the stations i'm on. How can i contribute to the database? Here are some that i'm missing in Polaris (Norway FIR):

• ENBR_ATIS: 125.250
• ENVA_ATIS: 127.550
• ENZV_ATIS: 126.000
• ENTC_ATIS: 126.125
• ENBO_ATIS: 123.900
• ENCN_ATIS: 124.475
• ENTO_ATIS: 119.075
• ENRY_ATIS: 136.175

For unicom this is not possible at the moment

Is this something that would be considered to implement?

You will have to ask who is in charge at your vACC of this, only they have permissions. I did do a quick check and it seems these stations are not defined in database, which would be the issue!

You can listen to unicom by adding a station in the following format "!CALLSIGN" where CALLSIGN is the callsign of the station's location that will be used as a transceiver

I'm not sure if i understood this correctly. I tried using the ICAO code of the airport i'm controlling (for example !ENZV) and the position (!ENZV_GND), but i get the error Could not find pilot connected under that callsign

The station or pilot needs to be logged in, just like the error clearly says ;)

Ah, gotcha. I was confused by the station vs pilot here. Indeed works as intended by using the callsign of an actual pilot flying. Thank you so much!
