Tips
"A rotary radio beacon is a radio beacon for aviation navigation. It sends out a special VHF radio signal from which a receiver in the aircraft can determine the direction to the radio beacon. The aircraft does not need a direction finding system for this, as the directional information is encoded into the signal by the transmitter. The The abbreviation VOR stands for VHF omnidirectional range.The actual VOR is the ground station, whose signal can be evaluated by the VOR receiver in the aircraft and read as directional information on a display device. To simplify, however, the receiver is also referred to as VOR." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drehfunkfeuer
