To adjust and select the communication radio frequency, which cockpit panel is used?

• A. RMP
• B. ACP
• C. MCDU
• D. ECAM

Answer: (A)

Tuning and selecting the communication radio frequency is done with the Radio Management Panel. This panel sits on the cockpit glare shield and provides the controls to set the VHF communication frequencies, display and compare active and standby values, and swap them so the desired frequency becomes active for transmission. The Audio Control Panel is about routing and adjusting audio for radios and intercom, not tuning frequencies. The MCDU handles flight management and data entry; the ECAM displays system status and is not used for radio tuning. So the Radio Management Panel is the appropriate panel for adjusting and selecting radio frequencies.
