Hi,
I have added VOR, localizer and glideslope signal calculations for the old 
(classic) navradios (navradio.cxx)
Now an ILS navaid is basically considered as two separate stations: Localizer 
and glideslope, as in reality. Both these stations can have separate 
parameters like transmitter power, antenna type etc.
Tested ok on C172p, but I've seen other aircraft that fail to set the GS flag 
when the GS signal is lost and LOC signal still present.
Localizer on backcourse has range about half the normal one, due to the 
antenna patterns.
This still needs testing for realism, especially since I'm not very happy with 
the antenna patterns I'm using, and the transmitter powers may be well off for 
ILS (but are ok for VOR's, according to data I have).
Merge request #1568 has been updated today to reflect the changes.
The antenna pattern used everywhere should go into $FGDATA/Navaids/Antennas/ 
but I'm really not keen on placing a merge request for only one text file, so 
awaiting suggestions.

Cheers,
Adrian
