ATC LIST

This information window lists all the ATCs currently online and within communication distance. Each ATC lists the following attributes:

• SI - The Sector Identifier assigned to the atc position in the FIR DEF.
• Short - A shorter name which uniquely identifies the atc position within the FIR. It is typically just 4 characters so that it doesn't take up too much space in menu's, labels, etc.
• Name - The name of the real person controlling the position.
• Rating - The rating of the controller assigned to them by the network, based on their progress through the examination system.
• Callsign - The phrase which should be used when addressing that controlling on the radio.
• Freq - The radio frequency which the controller is tuned to.

The “Columns” icon on the title-bar can be used to turn individual columns on or off by selecting them. The order of columns may be adjusted to suit the particular requirements by dragging the column headings.

By default, only ATC positions are displayed which have been defined in the FIR DEF for the active FIR, either as “internal” positions within the FIR, or “external” positions which would be neighbouring sectors that would be likely used for transferring traffic. The “Rows” icon on the title-bar can be used to select “ALL” rows, in which case the window lists all ATC positions within communication range regardless of whether they are defined in the FIR DEF. The “Short” and “Callsign” information will be missing for ATCs not defined in the active FIR DEF.
