Q

When the course deviation indicator (CDI) needle is centered using a VOR test signal (VOT), the omnibearing selector (OBS) and the TO/FROM indicator should read

A. 0° TO or 180° FROM, regardless of the pilot’s position from the VOT.

B. 180° FROM, only if the pilot is due north of the VOT.

C. 0° FROM or 180° TO, regardless of the pilot’s position from the VOT.

A

C. 0° FROM or 180° TO, regardless of the pilot’s position from the VOT.

Answer (C) is correct. (AIM Para 1-1-4) ( ? )
To use the VOT service, tune in to the VOT frequency (108.0-117.95 MHz) on the VOR receiver. With the CDI centered, the OBS should read 0° with the TO/FROM indication showing FROM, or the OBS should read 180° with the TO/FROM indication showing TO.
