3-25. MARKER BEACON RECEIVER.
a.
Description. The marker beacon receiver is located
inside the No.1 VOR receiver. The marker beacon receiver
obtains power through the VOR receivers. The marker
beacon provides visual and aural indication of the aircraft's
position over a 75 MHz marker beacon ground transmitter.
Upon entering the range of marker beacon signals, blue,
amber, or white annunciator lights will illuminate, and
corresponding aural signals will indicate aircraft passage over
the (0) outer, (M) middle, (A) inner or airway marker
beacons. Range is vertical to 50,000 feet. On-off, volume,
and sensitivity controls are located on the marker beacon
audio control panel (fig. 3-2).
b.
Controls/Indicators and Functions.
(1)
Marker beacon sensitivity switch (marker
beacon audio control panel, fig. 3-2) Controls sensitivity of
marker beacon receiver.
(a)
HI position enables high sensitivity
operation of marker beacon receiver.
(b)
LO position enables low sensitivity
operation of marker beacon receiver.
(2)
"0" indicator. Illuminates when aircraft
passes over an outer marker beacon.
(3)
"M" indicator. Illuminates when aircraft
passes over a middle marker beacon.
(4)
"A" indicator. Illuminates when aircraft
passes over an inner or airway marker beacon.
c.
