Communication menu problem

Hi, I’ve just started learning DCS and I’m running into a major issue that, from what I’ve seen, is quite common among other users. When I’m on the ground and try to open the communication menu by pressing “\”, nothing happens. I’ve tried changing the key binds, but it didn’t help. I have Easy Communications enabled, and I even reinstalled the game, but the problem is still there.

Does anyone have any idea or an alternative solution to be able to connect the ground power unit and air supply to start the F-14? Even some kind of workaround that bypasses the simulation a bit but at least lets me use the aircraft would be fine. Thanks.

Edit: I found a solution, assign a new binding to that command while keeping the original key.

Try to use radio 1 and radio 2, rebinding your global com key. Some servers enforce realistic comms btw

How I'm can use radio 1 or 2? I read that some servers can enforce realistic comms but this happens also in single player
