'''PTT''' (Push To Talk)
*'''if the FGCom Command-window initiates, but does not respond to any COMM or PTT activity:'''
**Try to enforce (the usually predefined) port as option. i.e. add “-p16661” to the FGCom Start-Command
**check the FGrun extended Options → Input/output “generic=socket..”: The port there must be the same as for the FGCom, i.e. 16661 (if it was not intentionally changed by you)
**You may try to change the port to e.g. UPD 5004. In this case you have to change at 2 places:
***add the option “-p5004” to the FGCom start-command
***also change the value in the FGrun (“Wizard”) → Advanced Options → Input/output to 5004.
***and you may have to tell your Firewall to allow port UPD 5004<br><br>
*'''if in the FGCom Command-Window the Airport indication is ok''',
**but when hitting the PTT it does not appear:
***[LISTEN] mute mic, unmute speaker
***[SPEAK] unmute mic, mute speaker</nowiki> <br>
**Be sure the FGFS window is the active window. Move the Mouse-Pointer into the FlightGear-Window and click once, then try again (while the Mouse-Pointer remains in that window! Some systems do change the “active Window” according to where the mouse is!)
**Check the “''YourPlane''-set.xml” file in your FGFS/data/Aircraft/YourPlane directory: If you find a line “<key n="32">” then this plane is intentionally  using “key 32” (Space) for something other than the PTT. Known planes that do that as of Feb. 2009 are: an2, bluebird-base, ogel, OV10..,  seafireIIc, spitfireIIa, ufo.
