FS9 European VORs don't seem to be working

A very long CBF VA flight back to Gatwick from Frankfurt in a DC3 yesterday with a 45-50kt partial headwind was made more difficult because seemingly my autopilot would not lock onto and hold the radials of the following VORs:
Olno 112.8, Huldenburg 117.55, Kosky 114.5.
Has anyone else had similar problems?

Hi Hobby,
I've looked at the first two mate and they appear to be working fine. I need to get up in the air on a VA flight so not enough time to check Koskey. Aircraft used for the check.. default Cessna. Not sure what's going on there :think:

Thanks Dave. I seem to have had problems before with some of these VORs. Never seem to have this problem over the UK with this panel and autopilot. Got a bit of RSI in neck today so not flying FS.

Rgr that sir
Btw.. did you get a chance to look on allnodes for those 'period' music files?? They'll go a treat with the cd player you have fitted

Dave:
I must have picked the wrong Croydon scenery because no period music was found. Can you please quote the zip that I should download?

Hi Hobby..
It seems that the sound files I mentioned are a bit of a roundabout way to find. If you go onto allnodes and type Bruce Kennewell into the search engine, they'll show

Hi Dave
Yes I do have those period music files from Bruce Already. Often VA passenger entertainment is 1951 hit parade plus a couple of 'Goon Shows' or a 1956 episode of 'Sherlock Holmes.' I usually put on a Glenn Miller CD for flights of over an hour.

Excellent

If you'd like a bit of variation, I have 'The Navy Lark' here on a cd somewhere. You'd certainly have a very jolly load of pax playing
that over the public address!!
