Unable to transmit when connected to an _1_ position
To reproduce:
- Have someone already connected to a position, e.g.
PDX_TWR, in CRC - Connect to the same position in CRC with a plan to relieve the other controller
- Activate your session in CRC, you'll be connected as
PDX_1_TWR - Connect in VectorAudio
Result: You'll connect, but your audio will never transmit out to pilots even though the TX indicator will light up
Expected result: Audio transmits fine
It appears to be specific to having _1_ in the callsign. If you wait to connect in CRC until after the other controller disconnects (so you connect as PDX_TWR) everything works fine
Thank you for the report, it’s not the only report i’ve had on something similar, I will look into it.

I've had success fixing this by Forcing a refresh of the audio station in VectorAudio.

How do you do that?
Click on the box with station name and select “Force refresh”
I had no idea that menu was there. Thanks!
The "Force refresh" method unfortunately doesn't work for me. To work around the issue I do this:
- Connect as a _1 position
- Wait for the other person to disconnect
- Right click on the position in vector audio and delete it
- Re-add the position
When this situation occurs, just manually add your station, for example PDX_TWR and use that to transmit, everything should work as intended. The only issue is that VectorAudio does not consider 1 to be a relief callsign, it only looks at double underscores.
