Some types of requests require you to provide numeric arguments.

* Compass bearings must be given by speaking each digit individually. Say "Six Five" or "Zero Six Five", not "Sixty-Five."
* Compass bearings must be given by speaking all three digits individually. Say "Zero Six Five", not "Six Five" or "Sixty-Five."
* All other numbers should be given normally - "Seventeen", not "One Seven"

* When providing bullseye coordinates, you may either say "bullseye" before the coordinates, or omit the word "bullseye". That is, both "Bullseye Zero Six Five, Ninety-Nine" and "Zero Six Five, Ninety-Nine" are acceptable.

Your own aircraft must be on a SkyEye SRS frequency, and using the same name in DCS and in SRS, to receive THREAT monitoring.

```
WIZARD: RAVEN Three One, threat group BRAA 070/20, 1000, hot, hostile, 2 contacts, Fishbed.

### MERGED

If any fixed-wing threats close within 3 nautical miles of a friendly aircraft, the controller will transmit a MERGED call. MERGED calls only apply to fixed-wing threats. You won't receive a MERGED call about a helicopter threat.

Your own aircraft must be on the SRS frequency, and using the same name in DCS and in SRS, to receive MERGED calls.

You will only receive one MERGED call every 30 seconds. If you merge with multiple threats within 30 seconds, you will only receive one MERGED call.

Example:

```
THUNDERHEAD: "Mobius one, merged."
```
