=== Radio manipulation ===

For the purposes of GQI-1 the only radio that is pertinent is the AN/PRC-343. This radio {{Emdash}} presuming the operation is in a modern setting {{Emdash}} is the default radio given to all infantrymen in a squad for inter-squad communication. It is likely you will spawn into an operation with this radio already on your person.

For the purposes of GQI-1 the only radio that is pertinent is the '''AN/PRC-343'''. This radio {{Emdash}} presuming the operation is in a modern setting {{Emdash}} is the default radio given to all infantrymen in a squad for inter-squad communication. It is likely you will spawn into an operation with this radio already on your person.

To manipulate the radio, it can be done by using ACE self-interact and selecting the radio by name. Once selected, a 3D model of the radio will appear. The right knob changes the channel you are on. This can be left alone, defaulting to channel 1, unless you hear otherwise from operation leadership. The left knob adjusts volume in increments of 20% with a maximum of 100%. Both knobs are adjustable by left and right clicking the knobs themselves.

If you click the handle an animation will play and you will be shown the channel block knob. Here you can change the block of channels used. By default, your 343 will be on block 1. Block 1 has 16 channels which directly correlate to the 16 possible options on the channel knob. If you switch to block 2, this creates an additional 16 channels. In other words, channel 2 on block 1 is not the same as channel 2 on block 2, and thus 2 different squads could have the same setting on the channel knob but have isolated frequencies.
