New FA1 antenna "Child Objects"?

[EngineerJohn]

I know its been a while, but does anyone know if the fa1 has been updated yet so the PRR antennas can be removed? iirc they're in the pipeline but just curious if anything has happened since.

I just got an email from Cesar, the request is over at DTG - no ETA yet. But it was submitted. They (DTG) asked him to make some additional changes on his side, which he is working on.
And, he has kinda been really busy with me!

Ask him again please.

I have confirmation that the antenna fix went out at 0800 on 20 February. DTG now has it.

Tick tick tick. The oxen move slowly but the Earth is patient.

I was surprised he got it ready the quicky. Our project is keeping us busy, were at revision 21 and I see 22 on the horizon. And I never mentioned the Erie FA!

He's had that part done since the first of the year.

Hey Buzz, an update was released for the locomotive today and appears to include the antenna fix in it.

Just take a quick look in the bin file down towards the bottom and see if it's shown as a child object if you would.

How did you get a hold of DTG to get the status update? I tried emailing them a few weeks ago to get the status of the SW1200 repaints that DTM submitted a while ago and I haven't heard back.

Hey Buzz I told ya I would nudge on your behalf.

Only the Shadow knows. Seriously if you look back on this thread you will see all the conversation was with DTM. DTG seems to close hold any product info until they are ready to release it.
