This thread confuses me, arenât we on 2.7 already?

I added 2.7 in the headline. 2021 started out on 2.5. Thereâs also the 2.7 Discussion thread. This one is about the updates themeselves, I guess. That was the thought, anyway. 
But we can easily make it about the inferiority of British lager beer compared to Belgian âŠ

I want to make a point here. But you are right. So Iâll just pipe down and get back in my box.
Donât drink anyway but if I did i wouldnât drink that nasty British â â â â water.
Did I have a point to this post? 
Iâm fairly sure I started with a point to make

- The channels all show up in the kneeboard and use the common DCS channel presets as default.
- Important note: Because channels Special 1-3 and EFGH have been left untouched in order to not break existing mission presets, some missions might have to update player/client aircraft to make the presets show correctly: Click on the player/client aircraft, cycle to AI and back to player/client, then resave the mission.

I wanted to ask you guys now that open beta and stable version are in parity; but I canât seem to get the tacan symbol to show up in my MFD on the Harrier. I havenât tried other aircraft yet. Most know through my screenshots that Iâve been flying the Harrier a lot lately and been making missions for it etc.
Anyway, is there a bug with the tacan symbol not showing up in DCS Aircraft? Or the Harrier? I know Iâve set things up correctly in the mission editor but maybe Iâm missing new procedures or something in the Harrier or maybe a bug? I really donât know.
Anyone have any ideas, bug or something else? Cheers and happy new year to all.
There was one post in the ED forum that mentioned this, although it should have been posted in the problems and bugs section. You might want to either reply as confirmation or start your own thread in bugs. When (if) I get home Sun night can also test to confirm. Thanks for your wx warning, btw.
Yep, I found it. Good to know I wasnât going crazy. Apparently other people are finding this as well. I thought I had read about some TACAN fix before, but I cannot find any reference to it.

So I did some experimenting with that Harrier mission I had made and found you can get the TACAN symbol to show up but not as how it used to be.
First pic. Iâm in the mission and Iâve set my TACAN setting on my Harrier to the TACAN frequency of the KC-130 including setting it to A/A. Notice no TACAN symbol but there seems to be a waypoint symbol which moves. I got to think this is a bug.
The next two screenshots show nothing changed in my Harrier settings tracking the KC-130 except I switched from A/A to T/R. You see this on the second screenshot here and notice that TACAN symbology does now show up on the MFD.
The last screenshot shows same settings but I wanted to check whether the DME distance figures show up on the HUD. They do. The way this is all going down just leads me to think itâs a bug but I really donât know.
