{{Note|A full KMA24 audio panel implementation was added in January 2017. The knob on the right of the unit switches the speaker amplifier on and off and also controls the marker beacon receiver. To hear ATIS broadcasts, either switch the comm radio output using the COMM phone switch, or use the COMM speaker switch with the knob in any position other than off. To hear marker beacon idents, the knob must be in any other position than off and one of the MKR switches selected on the panel.}}
