ATIS

Uses MOOSE to create an ATIS radio frequency at each blue airbase.

• Place aircraft with name of ATIS_[airbase callsign] (ATIS_Kobuleti, for example) to get subtitles
  • Uses MOOSE sound files
• Frequency is VHF + frequency_add (Kobuleti=133MHz, ATIS=133.25MHz, for example)

Configuration settings:

local config = ATIS_CONFIG or {
  frequency_add = 250000 -- in Hz
}
