HST VOR not displaying on VOR Indicator

Featured Replies

I cannot get any of the VOR receivers in any aircraft to display the navigation to VOR HST 108.2 in Miami.It will display the DME fine but the VOR receiver needles will not move. I have also tried this in a default installation of FSX on my other drive and it does the same so it is not a conflict/corrupted file.Any other VOR/ILS works fine just the HST.Have started the North American tour and this is the first flight!!Anyone else have the same problem?

Graham,It appears that HST is a TACAN and not a VOR. The TACAN is a military version of the VOR, operating in the UHF range as opposed to VHF.This particular TACAN is situated at Homestead ARB. All TACANs in the FS world have DME capabilities only.In the map view a TACAN is represented by a square, instead of the hexagon within a square which is used for a VOR/DME.Hope this helps,Todd

I didn't notice that. I am following the first leg of the NA tour and the 2 waypoints listed between KEYW and KOPF are MTH and then HST. I couldn't figure out why I couldn't 'tune' the VOR correctly but you've just cleared it up for me. Thanks
