Step 1 - Install Radar Contact
Installation is straightforward. Once you receive your CD, insert it into your CD Drive. If the following screen does not automatically show, use your Explorer to find the rcv43.exe file, which is located in the root-directory of the CD. Double click on the RCv4 icon to start the installation process. The following screen will appear. Check that you have other applications closed, then click “next”. The next screen will provide you with a copy of the RCv4 license agreement. Scroll through it (it is not long), then click “I accept the agreement” option.

The following screen will appear. Then pick the kind of installation that you want: a drop-down box lets you choose the version of Flight Simulator (RCv4 works with FS2004 and/or FSX).

The minimum installation option includes the program files, pilots and controller voices, and two required interfaces between RC and FS: FSUIPC. After installation, check the website (http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html) for updates to this utility, written by Peter Dowson. ”Full” installation installs the files included in the minimum install button, plus, thousands of chatter files which were recorded from real communications on the airways between pilots and controllers. You do not have to install them; if you do not, you can use RC‟s own generated chatter. Clicking Next will be a “Select Start Menu Folder” screen. Click on the “Next” option, which will lead to the following “Ready to Install” screen, which summarizes the options selected in the earlier screens. If all is correct, click the “Install” option. If you want to change parameters, click the “Back” option.
