Update: I've added new signal calculation for DME stations too. As explained detailed in the wiki, DME uses a very high frequency range, thus it is possible sometimes in reality to receive the VOR signal but not the DME signal. Screenshots provided in the wiki article. Also, TACAN reception is

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,
