[ARC5] AN-Ranges

[Robert Eleazer]

When I was taking private pilot ground school in the mid-70's we were told there was still one AN range operational in the US, out in Montana or somewhere.

We learned VOR navigation and a bit about ADF.  I used an ADF exactly once, when flying a Cessna 172 between Torrance CA and Santa Maria, CA, in 1982, but I just tuned in an AM radio station in Santa Barbara out of curiosity and not for navigation.

Some NDB's also carry aviation weather broadcasts, but there are not many.
