 ====== Map a Rumor ======
-Map a rumored site by tuning SRS to its A/N signal, following a continuous course tone through the search area and landing by the white-flagged tyre at the true site.
+Map a rumored site by tuning in to its A/N signal, following the steady course tone through the search area and landing by the white-flagged tyre at the true site.
-**Before the flight.** SRS is required and must be connected. Open ''F10: Other > Tycoon > Navigation > Current rumors'' or inspect the Live Map, then note the rumor's search circle, anchor airfield, frequency and modulation.
+**Before the flight.** Type ''-tyc rumors'' in DCS chat for the open rumors, or switch on the **RADAR** layer on the Live Map to see their cones. Note the rumor's anchor airfield, direction, frequency and modulation.
-  - Tune the exact frequency and modulation in SRS.
+  - Tune in: either set the exact frequency and modulation in SRS, or pick the rumor under **Navigation > A/N Receiver** in the radio menu.
-  - Fly into the search circle from the broad direction of the named anchor airfield.
+  - Start at the named anchor airfield and fly out in the broad direction given for the rumor.
   - Listen in DCS audio for the A/N cue.
   - When the two Morse patterns blend into a continuous, rhythm-free tone, hold that course line toward the site.
   - If Morse **A** or **N** becomes distinct, turn gently until it blends back into the continuous tone.
   - When the repeated **Z** overhead marker appears, descend and search visually.
-  - Land by the white-flagged tyre. It marks the true location, not necessarily the centre of the search circle.
+  - Land by the white-flagged tyre. It marks the true location.
 **Success.** The tyre becomes friendly and the mapped site gains its normal Live Map details, radio-menu navigation and beacon. Mapping reveals the site but does not commission it.
-**If no signal is audible.** Confirm that SRS is connected, both tuning values match exactly and DCS audio is reaching the correct headset or speakers. Rumors can lapse, and higher-tier sites need the required regional Survey Station.
+**If no signal is audible.** Confirm that you are within the rumor's signal range and that SRS is connected with both tuning values matching exactly, or that the A/N Receiver is set to this rumor. Check that DCS audio is reaching the correct headset or speakers. Rumors can lapse, and higher-tier sites need the required regional Survey Station.
