254) Provide a stable directional reference to enable the pilot to maintain a heading or carry out an
accurate turn onto a new heading. Used in conjunction with a DR compass
255) ILS comprises glideslope and localiser. Glideslope freq range is 329.3 – 335.0 MHz (UHF). Localiser
freq range is 108.1 – 111.9 MHz, on odd tenths (VHF). Therefore channel spacing is 200kHz
256) 108 – 135.975MHz at 25kHZ intervals
257) VHF (108 – 112 MHz on the even tenths)
258)75 MHz
259) 3 – 30 MHz
260) VSWR, output power
261) Ensures max power reaches antenna by electrically varying antenna length by adding capacitance
or inductance in series with the antenna
262) V is a max at both ends and a min in centre. I is a min at both ends and a max at the centre
263) 50 ohms
264) Balun
265) 121.5MHz (civilian emergency channel)
266) Shorten antenna
267) Quarter-wave vertically polarised (Marconi) antenna
268) VSWR is a minimum (~ 1) and output power is a maximum
269) 1.07 (VSWR = power out/power in therefore = 75/70)
270) On the centreline of the belly of the aircraft, as far as practical from other antennae
271) On top of the cabin with the apex of the V facing forward
272)Flutter and vibration
273) VHF – vertically polarised whip, ADF – directional loop and non-directional sense antenna, ATC –
UHF stub antenna
274) Prevent development of RF potentials (build up of static charge)
275) Ensure there is no coupling of the static into the radio antenna
276) Susceptibility of circuts to picking up noise energy and fgeeding it into radio receiver –
eliminated by shielding or filters
277)Installation of capacitors (filtering)
278) 0 – 0.1 ohms, 2V
279) 600 ohms
280) Carbon, piezoelectric, dynamic, electret (don’t know the characteristics)
281) The issue of a radio station license by the director general post and telegraph department
282) Nothing
283)Wire strung up between the vertical fin tip and fuselage
284) 50Ω coax
285)Cone of silence
286) The ionosphere moves closer to the earth at night
287) The length of the aerial rod or blade, the impedance of the coax feeder and the design of the
matching stub
288) Shock mounting
289) Radio station license
290)
291) For troubleshooting, not to locate specific items.
292)
293) Release the aircraft to service as the wire is correctly installed
294) 2 feet
295) 0.05Ω
296) A low range reading ohm-meter
297) All components of the aircraft are electrically bonded
298) Used to switch triacs etc and used in relaxation oscillators

299) Thyrister
300) Reverse
301) No, it will have degraded performance and fail early
