Question 1 of 27070

What is the frequency range of the ground-based Very-high-frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) stations used for aircraft navigation?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between kHz (kilohertz) and MHz (megahertz) and what part of spectrum VHF actually occupies • Typical frequency band assigned to aviation VOR services in the radio regulations • Which band (VHF vs UHF) is associated with VOR compared to ILS glideslope/localizer systems

💭 Think About

• Start by recalling what VHF stands for in terms of frequency range and decide whether that suggests kHz or MHz values • Think about whether VOR shares its frequency region with VHF communication radios (COM radios) used by aircraft, and if so, what approximate band that is • Look at each option and eliminate any that clearly do not fall in the normal VHF portion of the spectrum

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that VHF frequencies are usually expressed in MHz, not kHz • Check which choice matches the commonly cited VOR frequency allocation in aviation references • Make sure the lower and upper limits in your chosen range both fall within the VHF band (30–300 MHz)
