Map a Rumor

Map a rumored site by tuning SRS 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 the radio menu with # on the ground or Alt+# in the air, press F10 for Other, then select Tycoon > Navigation > Current rumors. You can also inspect the Live Map. Note the rumor's search circle, anchor airfield, frequency and modulation.

  1. Tune the exact frequency and modulation in SRS.
  2. Fly into the search circle from the broad direction of the named anchor airfield.
  3. Listen in DCS audio for the A/N cue.
  4. When the two Morse patterns blend into a continuous, rhythm-free tone, hold that course line toward the site.
  5. If Morse A or N becomes distinct, turn gently until it blends back into the continuous tone.
  6. When the repeated Z overhead marker appears, descend and search visually.
  7. Land by the white-flagged tyre. It marks the true location, not necessarily the centre of the search circle.

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.
