The selected frequency is placed in the standby field of the COM Window and activated using the COM Flip-flop Key. For duplex operations, 'RX' and 'TX' indications appears beside the listed frequencies, indicating 'receive only' or 'transmit only' frequencies. The associated VOR is also provided for reference.
