VOR Information

The GPS 150XL features three VOR waypoint pages:

VOR identification— allows entry of desired VOR by identifier,
facility name or city; displays region and/or country of facility.

VOR position— allows entry of desired VOR by identifier; displays
latitude, longitude and frequency; provides magnetic variation, weather
broadcasts and DME/TACAN information.

VOR comments— allows entry of desired VOR by identifier; displays user
comments for the selected facility.

VOR information is accessed by entering the desired facility by identifier, city or

facility name (see page 33) on a VOR waypoint page. The VOR identification and
comments pages are identical in form and function to their airport page counterparts.

To scroll through the VOR pages:

1. Make sure the cursor is not present. If it is, press

C

.

2. Rotate

O

in either direction to scroll through the available pages.

In addition to displaying the VOR frequency, magnetic variation and position, the

VOR position page indicates if a DME or TACAN is co-located at the facility. The ‘wx
bdcst’ field indicates that the VOR also transmits weather information.
