USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.  This fix works loading the aircraft at the gate or ramp.  No need to press Cntrl-E.  It works for me, and it may work for you.  If not, or these changes cause other problems, you can just restore the unmodified files.    On my setup, the frequencies are all visible and swapping the standby frequency for the active frequency on each of the three com channels works. You need to have the files contained in wlrs-captainsim-boeing_XoPct_CS1.3.2.zip (Salty)installed in your community folder (you don't need the ones for aircraft you don't have installed).  The link is available at the beginning of this thread. I have the 777-200ER GE and 777-300ER (GE engines) purchased from this site.  I don't own other versions but this fix might work for them too. FOR THE 777-200ER GE:     Start in the folder: wlrs-captainsim-boeing_XoPct_CS1.3.2\wlrs-captainsim-b772-ge90\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_B777-200ER_GE90B The two files you need to modify can be edited with Notepad. FIRST, MAKE A BACKUP OF Apron.flt by copying it to a safe place outside the community folder. Open Apron.flt with Notepad. Find the section [Avionics.0]   The first entry under this heading is: Comm1Active=122.800 The last entry is: AvionicsSwitch=False Delete the ENTIRE SECTION., from the [Avionics.0] entry all the way down to AvionicsSwitch=False Save the file.  Make sure the saved file has the same name and stil ends in .flt SECOND, in the same folder, locate the subfolder Model and open it. MAKE A BACKUP OF m772_201_interior.xml by copying it to a safe place outside the community folder. Open m772_201_interior.xml with Notepad. Search for   B777_Com (You will find three entries, one for each Com panel, each in a line that looks like this:   <PANEL_NAME>B777_Com</PANEL_NAME>) Carefully change "B777_Com" to "B747_8_Com" (without the quotes). Be careful not to make any other changes; even an extra  ".  "," or ";" can mess up the entire file.  That's why you need a backup. Save the file.  Make sure the saved file has the same name and still ends in .xml. MODIFYING THE 777-300ER the folder to edit is: wlrs-captainsim-boeing_XoPct_CS1.3.2\wlrs-captainsim-b77w-ge90\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_B777-300ER_GE115B The apron.flt file has the same name, and the model folder file name is m773_305_interior.xml) SOMETIMES THE COM FREQUENCY DISPLAYS GO BLANK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLIGHT.  CONTROL-E FIXES THIS FOR ME, and since the engines are already running and everything else is already turned on, it doesn't cause any problems.

I just want to say that you are a gentlemen, scholar, and hero for this. Followed the instructions to a T and my radio and transponder panels are working! YEsssssssssssssss! Thank you!
