Radio channels
Standard radio channels are U15 for tower, U17 for package comms, and for flight comms.
Note that channels are subject to the package commander's discretion and are part of the package briefing. Channel 13 UHF is sometimes used for package, but is not always preferred as all AI broadcast on U13.
IVC check
After the briefing for the mission is complete, there's usually an IVC check where all players sound off on IVC to confirm that everyone can transmit and receive without problems.
Sound off by pressing F1 and saying your callsign in sequence.
The sequence is usually the order of take-off if players are in only one squadron. If players are split over two or more squadrons, the IVC check should be done in the order listed on the Briefing page.
