    The localizer output that would result in a change in the capture points from facility reference is the 12 watt (W) Course (CRS) Carrier plus sideband (CSB). This output provides a stronger signal with both the carrier and sideband, which would allow for a more accurate capture of the localizer signal. The other options either have a lower power output or do not include both the carrier and sideband, which would not provide the same level of accuracy for capturing the localizer signal.

    (215) When operating an instrument landing system (ILS) at category II, the pilot must be able to fly inbound to a point of interception where the localizer course line intersects the glide path at a point

    • Above the inner marker.

    • Above the middle marker.

    • Above the runway threshold.

    • Where the aircraft makes its touchdown on the runway.

    Correct Answer
    A. Above the runway threshold.
    Explanation
    When operating an instrument landing system (ILS) at category II, the pilot must be able to fly inbound to a point of interception where the localizer course line intersects the glide path at a point above the runway threshold. This means that the pilot needs to be able to align the aircraft with the runway and descend to the correct altitude above the threshold before landing. The threshold is the beginning of the runway, so flying above it ensures that the aircraft is properly aligned and prepared for landing.

    (216) If a facility does not meet established tolerances within some specific locations of the service area, how does an inspector classify it?

    • Unusable.

    • Restricted.

    • Unreliable.

    • Unrestricted.

    Correct Answer
    A. Restricted.
    Explanation
    If a facility does not meet established tolerances within specific locations of the service area, an inspector would classify it as "restricted." This means that the facility is limited or constrained in its use due to not meeting the required standards or tolerances. It may still be usable in some capacity, but there are restrictions or limitations placed on its use.

    (217) During a localizer normal width run flight check, what level is not measured?

    • Course Width.

    • Identification.

    • Clearance.

    • Symmetry.

    Correct Answer
    A. Identification.
    Explanation
    During a localizer normal width run flight check, various parameters are measured to ensure the accuracy of the localizer signal. These include course width, clearance, and symmetry. However, identification is not measured during this check. Identification refers to the ability of the localizer to accurately identify and transmit its unique identifier code. While this is an important aspect of the localizer's functionality, it is not specifically measured during a normal width run flight check.

    (202) In megahertz (MHz), the frequency range of the transmitters in the localizer equipment station is

    • 108 to 112.

    • 324 to 336.

    • 962 to 1,213.

    • 2,250 to 2,259.

    Correct Answer
    A. 108 to 112.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 108 to 112 MHz. This frequency range is the range of the transmitters in the localizer equipment station. The localizer equipment station is used in aviation for instrument landing systems (ILS) to provide horizontal guidance to pilots during approach and landing. The frequency range of 108 to 112 MHz is specifically allocated for the localizer equipment station and is used to transmit signals that help pilots align their aircraft with the runway centerline.
