However I would like to 'talk' to the Controller using my computer mic. I searched the forum but could not find any advice. Can you please tell me, if it is possible and how to do it.
Thank you in advance.

Sometimes I run into problems switching on the radio. For instance Boeing 777-200ER at KSFO I entered 121.8 MHz in VHF L but failed to ON the radio. Then I tried different communication radio frequencies (GND, TWR, ATIS) in VHF C and VHF R but none of them worked. On the other hand R G in Boeing 737-800, MD-11 and A330 in the same airport worked.
Is it an issue with 777 or do I need 'set up' something before hand in 777?
Thank you in advance.
Regards, Ruhuna

(Was taking off in Northern Europe, with temperatures around the freezing point).
Not sure if this is the best solution, but played around with the code a little and found a fix by changing the altitude used by the ATC to /instrumentation/altimeter/pressure-alt-ft + 876 * ( qnhinhg - 29.92 ).
pressure-alt-ft doesn't seem to be affected by the QHN set in the altimeter and thus still requires the pilot to set this for the ATC to work.
Mostly just guessing here, so my apologies if I'm all wrong, just thought I'd share my experiences.
