thank you
brother
that's correct
The NDB (non-directional beacon) used with the ADF provides no bearing from the ground, the ADF in the cockpit pointed to a relative bearing that would change as you flew toward the station with the wind, this was called "homing" and you would fly a parabola like path. You could, though some mental gymnastics ( double the distance from the bearing to the head and add it to the tail -- it's been a long time) actually track straight (sorta) to a station.
The VOR (VHF Omni-directional Range) provides bearing information through the cockpit instrumentation by broadcasting two different signals. The VOR head measures the difference between the two signals and displays the bearing TO or FROM the station in the cockpit. Much easier than the NDB.
Thank you Faisal .
ADF is automatic direction finder while VOR is Very High Frequency(VHF) Omni-Range.
the tow is navigation
