Choose the only correct statement about an aircraft's Automatic Direction Finding (ADF) equipment. |
A) An aircraft's ADF transmission exhibits primarily a line-of-sight range to the ground-based target station and will not follow the curvature of the Earth. |
B) Only a single omnidirectional sense antenna is required to receive an NDB transmission and process the signal to calculate the aircraft's bearing to the selected ground station. |
C) All frequencies in the ADF's operating range except the commercial standard broadcast stations (550 to 1660 kHz) can be utilized as a navigational Non Directional Beacon (NDB) signal. |
D) An aircraft's ADF antennas can receive transmissions that are over the Earth's horizon (sometimes several hundred miles away) since these signals will follow the curvature of the Earth. |
