8.33KHz frequency spacing

[kingm56]

Good evening, John.

Concerning offset 034E, it supports 4-dights in BCD format; however, MSFS has a lot of frequency that require 5 digits.  Is there another offset I should be using to set the radio freq to 123.455 (example) vice 123.45.  I know there's an offset in FSUIPC6 that allows your to read five digits, but not write.   Hope you had a good holiday.

It is the same offset in FSUIPC7 - 0x05C4, and is also read-only. To set the frequency, you need to use the appropriate control/event (or maybe preset, depending on avionics).
Usually you would set the frequency by inc/dec of the current (standby) frequency, and the inc/dec controls should inc/dec through the 8.33KHz spacing.

That's perfect...thank you!
