Hi, here a few questions about the sim go:
Precision waypoints bombing: In all the guides I read about this, I always read: "write down the preplanning screen recon page coordinates of the target and put it on DEST ICP page when ramping start" But, then I need retain it on memory or write it on a paper?? There is no way to do without aux tools (paper and pen)?? If not, maybe a good request for feature, to have the option of writing the coordinates we want on the brienfing book of the pilot, same as done with initial point coordinates to INS alignment.
Reconnaisance pod: When I put low alt camera on the aircraft, if I select it cycling through the A-G weapons, it appears its own HUD simbology with a circle to aim the photo camera. But in manual is written that in sms page there is a OSB labeled as RCCE and if I push it the RCCE camera SMS page appears with labels like RUN RDY INV RPOD IDX#... If I push the RCCE button in-sim nothing happens, why?? Although without that options I can do photos, options like "RUN" in that page that not appear to me, makes me think it can be a camera to record videos or something like that. Is there any mission that a video recording is required?
FLIR: Is there any cockpit switch to active FLIR, or is shift-h the only option to active it?
TFR: It appears that sometimes I can active TFR without more actions than go to TFR page, putting it ON, NORM, and the Alt I want, but sometimes it appear "WPN OFF" and I cannot active it. (I tried weapons armed and unarmed and I checked Radar Alt is On) Is there any F16 Block dont have it? or no having it on training missions? or what? please explain me this.
Nuclear weapons: In cockpit there is a switch to consent nuclear weapons release. What are the nuclear weapons can I charge on the aircraft? Are there in any concrete campaign or scenario or something like that?
Dogfight HUD simbology: In manual is written that "DGFT" label has to appear when I go to dogfight override mode, but that label not appear. However, if Im in TCN/ILS mode and I go to dogfight mode it appears, why?
ILS HUD simbology: I've read something about the tadpole on ILS and it indicates the 45º bank to intercept the CDI perfectly if I activate something on the ICP. Anyone can explain me this or give me a link where its explained?
Waiting for feedback. Thanks in advance

What are the nuclear weapons can I charge on the aircraft? Are there in any concrete campaign or scenario or something like that? There are no nukes available in the campaign. I'm not sure about TEs.

Check your radar settings, see if your not running in SILENT or QUIET mode override.
