AN ACR MLG LOST ALL COMS FOR A BRIEF TIME. THEY FOLLOWED THE LOST COM PROCS AND WERE ABLE TO REESTABLISH COMS.

Narrative

SHORTLY AFTER TKOF FROM SBN WE LOST THE USE OF OUR #1 VHF COM RADIO. THE FO WAS VERY QUICK TO RESPOND TO THIS FAILURE AND SWITCHED TO OUR #2 VHF COM RADIO. RADIO CONTACT WAS REESTABLISHED WITH DEP CTL. DEP THEN CLRED US TO 8000 FT AND ASKED US TO SWITCH TO CHICAGO CTR. WHICH WE DID. WHEN WE CONTACTED CHICAGO; WE ADVISED THEM THAT WE HAD LOST THE USE OF OUR #1 VHF RADIO. CTR ACKNOWLEDGED THIS AND THEN CLRED US TO 12000 FT AND DIRECT CRL VOR. ABOUT 5 MINS AFTER CONTACTING CHICAGO IT BECAME APPARENT THAT WE HAD LOST OUR #2 VHF COM RADIO. WE IMMEDIATELY PLACED 7600 IN OUR XPONDER. THE FO SEARCHED FOR A FREQ THAT WOULD WORK. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES; HE FOUND THAT 124.25 WORKED. THIS HAPPENED TO BE DTW APCH CTL. WE AGAIN ESTABLISHED CONTACT AND ALSO SAID THAT WE DID NOT WANT TO CHANGE FREQS AGAIN FOR FEAR OF LOSING CONTACT. APCH THEN VECTORED US FOR THE APCH. THROUGHOUT THIS SIT; WE USED THE LOST RADIO COM PROCS OUTLINED IN BOTH OUR COMPANY OPS MANUAL AND THE AIM. USING THE LOST COMS GUIDELINES SEEMED TO WORK WELL AND THE USE OF 7600 IN OUR XPONDER SEEMED TO ALERT THE GND PERSONNEL TO OUR SIT. THROUGHOUT THIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE OUR NAV RADIOS SEEMED TO WORK WELL AND NEVER FALTERED. WE LANDED IN DTW WITHOUT FURTHER EVENT AND TURNED THE ACFT OVER TO OUR MAINT PERSONNEL.
