Default WWRB shortwave : Our You tube video: The Four Course Radio Range

Greetings: from WWRB shortwave.......

We posted a video of a Four Course Radio Range station that we have
placed on the air here at the WWRB shortwave transmitter facility.

As you are aware, WWRB shortwave is also a private airport:
ROSEANNE : The runway is Co -located with the WWRB transmitter
facility. We have on site: a ILS, VORTAC, & NDB .

The Four Course Radio Range was the electronic backbone aircraft
navigation system used from 1928 to about 1963.

We made the video a few weeks ago with actual in flight video &
audio! To see the Video go to : Youtube in the search bar enter :
Four Course Radio Range you will see a picture with a caption
'Navigation in the 1940's ' click on and enjoy the video!

We ask that you view our video and make whatever comments about
it.

The aircraft pilot magazine 'AOPA magazine' will have an article on
our 'Range station in the June issue written by Barry Schiff

Let us know what you think of the Video

By the way...our NDB beacon is on 529 KHZ You can hear it on your
car radio tuned at night time to 530 AM you will hear the Morse Code
LYQ every 8 seconds.....The NDB beacon is located here at WWRB
shortwave right next to the Runway, By the Glide slope facility.
just down the Runway you can see it on the WWRB photo gallery
check it out!
Regards to all...............
