3 The importance of knowledge of polarization is said to lie in the orientation of the receiver
aerial. This is because.
A horizontal aerial will efficiently receive the magnetic component of a vertically

polarized signal.
A vertical aerial will efficiently receive both the magnetic and electrical components that
spin about the axis of advance.
A perfectly horizontal aerial will not receive any electrical component from a vertically
polarized signal.
Only a circularly polarized signal will be received by a horizontal aerial.

72 'Night Effect' which causes loss of signal and fading, resulting in bearing errors from
NDB transmissions, is due to:
skywave distortion of the null position and is maximum at dawn and dusk
interference from other transmissions and is maximum at dusk when east of the
NDB
the effect of the Aurora Borealis
static activity increasing at night particularly in the lower frequency band

74 There are two NDBs, one 20 NM inland, and the other 50 NM inland from the coast.
Assuming that the error caused by coastal refraction is the same for both
propagations, the extent of the error in a position line plotted by an aircraft that is over
water will be:
the same from both beacons when the aircraft is on a relative bearing of 180° and
360°
greater from the beacon that is 50 NM inland
greater from the beacon that is 20 NM inland
the same from both beacons when the aircraft is on a relative bearing of 090° and

conventional VOR is correct?
The receiver adds 30 Hz to the variable signal before combining it with the
reference signal
The transmitter changes the frequency of the variable signal by 30 Hz either side of
the allocated frequency each time it rotates
The rotation of the variable signal at a rate of 30 times per second gives it the
characteristics of a 30 Hz amplitude modulation
The transmitter varies the amplitude of the variable signal by 30 Hz each time it
rotates

replies to other aircraft interrogations because:
pulse pairs are amplitude modulated with the aircraft registration
the time interval between pulse pairs is unique to that particular aircraft
aircraft interrogation signals and transponder responses are 63 MHz removed from
each other
transmission frequencies are 63 MHz different for each aircraft
