As a former (old days) radio instrument instructor pilot I am trying to get the wquiptment and a/c to work correctly but need some info:
1) Which USN a/c have equiptment to use:
a. NDB with double needle
b. what typ of radio/radio bcn can they use
of the nav aids listed; Radio beacon,Meacon,YG,BBC(and other AM bc stations
C. I need a example of music/voice entry to a B/C station like BBC
I have the normal "pie" system used on carriers working fine, but do any carriers have a NDB for "homing?
Do the maps in 4.10 have radio bcns on them?
Flew the B25J but the ADF didn't work I had to slew the bcn, however I did see the "radio Compass" swing. Looks as if it is a "relative" heading thing.
Any help? e address "starron1@bellsouth.net"
Too bad no "radio range" the old "a","n" thing. Flew a lot of that back in the '60!
