DV8T - re: comms
On the police setup, the comms head has a wheel from which you can select atc1, atc2 or any of the police radios (tac1-9) for transmitting. The two front heads can transmit on atc1 or atc2 (air traffic comms),
Whereas the rear observer station can only transmit on tac (police) channels. They can however monitor air traffic in the back.
This prevents observers from accidentally transmitting to atc from the rear. I believe atc1 and 2 are actually 1 radio behind the dash. I'm not a pilot so I could be wrong about the hardware setup, nor can I assist re the transponder
