Open Frequency Selector on startup, also Callsign

Hey guys, I'm new to flight sim so be gentle :-) I installed and got XLinSpeak working under Linux! I have three quick questions:

1. Is there a way to have the frequency selector open at startup of XPlane 11, or is it necessary to go to the plugin menu and select "Frequency selector" every time?

2. When I select ATIS from the frequency selector, I hear the voice saying the stuff, but I don't see the text in the little output window? Can I turn this on?

3. Is there a way to hard code my callsign so I don't have to type it in every time I submit a flight plan?

Thank you!

1) and 2) - you can assign a shortcut to any key on the keyboard to open these windows.

OK thanks... as to 2) all other ATC messages show up in the text window, it's just ATIS that doesn't. Am I missing something?

I also have the same with ATIS. In order for ATIS to appear in the form of text, you must check the "Enable text ATC messages" option (in the Settings / Sound menu) in XP.
But this unfortunately causes that 124thATC messages will also be displayed in this window. So I'll be duplicated.

Ahhhh, gotcha... ATIS isn't coming from 124th I guess, but the default engine. Hmm. Thanks.
