Title: Re: Setting Squawk Number

I'll give it a go with the ATC, and an IFR flight to find out if the Mode C/Mode D makes any difference to them. ;)

I don't use IFR flights much in FSX/P3D as they don't follow the STARs I'm using on approach, and so I carry it over to the C-130, even though I don't use a SID, or STAR, in the route. If I fly a VFR flight in bad weather, I don't use the ATC for takeoff and landing because they won't allow it, so I do my own thing. :O

Edit. I tested my original settings above on an IFR flight, and it worked perfectly. Every time I changed one of the digits in the Mode 3/A/B (#5 (red box) in the attached image of my previous post), the ATC informed me to reset the squawk code, and that my transponder was malfunctioning. ;D
