ATI T18 P2

TACAN

• provides azimuth to a known station, Identification of the station with Morse code, and slant - range distance to the station

• provides azimuth to a known station, identification of the station with Morse code, and slant- range distance to the station

• They both correct

The receive frequency for a TACAN is exactly

• 63 MHz above or below the transmit frequency

• 63 MHz above

• 63 MHz below

• 63 MMH on the dot

Coriolis Effect

• as an aircraft travels over the surface of the Earth, the Earth itself rotates, exhibiting a constant east velocity, which is maximum at the equator and progressively less at higher latitudes.

• as an aircraft latitudes over the surface of the Earth, the Earth itself rotates, exhibiting a constant east velocity, which is maximum at the equator and progressively less at higher latitudes :)

TACAN uses ___ two-way channels in the frequency range of (962 to 1213) MHz

In TACAN Receive - the aircraft receives

• Bearing

• Station ID

• Bearing and Station ID only

• none of the above

The basic function of the aircraft TACAN subsystem is

• to provide navigation information to the pilot and aircrew

• to provide ground instruction to the pilot and aircrew

• to provide maintenance instruction to the pilot and aircrew

Marconi antenna is electrically

• one - quarter wavelength long

Marconi antenna is physically

• one-half wavelength vertical antenna

• one-quarter wavelength long

The aircraft TACAN transmitter is disabled to

• keep communication

• ensure radio silence

• save batteries

When using _______ mode, the TACAN sets in the aircraft must be set 63 channels apart to simulate
