displaying COM station identifier at top of screen

[david.perl]

In the PR shots i can see when using the SV COM radio, the frequency and identifier for that station is shown in the top of the SV screen.

Can this also work when using the Garmin GNC 255 radio as at the moment i get the station frequency (which is nice) but no identifier (which would be even nicer) ?

It works for me with a Garmin SL30 radio, I get both frequency and identifier, for both active and standby channels. The identifier comes from lookup in the Skyview aviation database, and I think current GPS position is used, because it can distinguish amongst the many airports using a common CTAF, like 122.80, to usually identify the nearest one.

If you get frequency displayed, but not name, it's probably because it's not found in the SV database. If you go to the map display and lookup info for the expected airport, do you see the frequencies listed on the Com tab?
