Ground based NAVAIDS that transmit very-high-frequency signals in 360 degrees are called:
A) Radials
B) NAVs
C) VORs
D) DMEs
E) MLBs

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

VOR (VHF Omni-directional Range) stations transmit signals in 360 degrees and are ground-based NAVAIDs that use very-high-frequency signals. Radials are lines emanating from VOR stations indicating specific magnetic bearings, NAVs is not a term used in aviation navigation, DMEs (Distance Measuring Equipment) is a different type of NAVAID that measures distance rather than direction, and MLBs (Microwave Landing Systems) are a different type of approach aid used for precision instrument approaches.
